1. What would people be surprised to know about you?

I’ve been practicing Muay Thai for two years and have fought at four interclubs. Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand and it’s very similar to kickboxing however it incorporates elbow strikes, knees strikes and clinching. It’s extremely fun and opened my eyes to a whole world of martial arts that I was unaware of before. With some more practice, I’m looking to compete again hopefully in the not so distant future!

2. Where is your favourite place in the world?

The Caribbean. I went on a cruise around the Caribbean with my family over Christmas 2015 and visited a number of islands. Spending Christmas Day swimming with turtles in the sea and having Christmas dinner on a beach in Barbados was an experience I’ll never forget!

3. What is your guilty pleasure?

I wouldn’t usually say I have guilty pleasures but if I had to choose one I would say Harry Styles. I liked his debut album and I like his sense of style. He was also fantastic in Dunkirk.

4. What keeps you going in the office?

Cold black coffee! Nothing better to get the day going and make’s whoever’s coffee round it is a little easier. I also recently found out that two scoops isn’t the norm and may explain the fast typing!
