What music do you like?
I like a real eclectic mix of music – ranging from the 80s and 90s right up to modern day and I enjoy listening to American rapper and singer Jack Harlow. I’m also a big fan of RnB from the early 00s and the best gig I have been to is Lauren Hill, Wycliffe and The Fugees at The O2 Arena in London.
What’s your favourite food?
Curry is one of my favourite dishes so I’d probably say a Beef Rendang, but not too spicy! I also like Italian food – especially Gnocchi.
What film or boxset would you recommend to others?
James Bond are my favourites films of all time and Pierce Brosnan is my number one Bond, but I also like watching the odd horror movie too.
TV wise, I’d recommend Dexter, a US series about a serial killer who is also a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department.
What is your favourite holiday destination?
I love travelling and have been to loads of places in Europe – including Latvia, Riga, Montenegro and Barcelona. But I would say Athens is my favourite because of its combination of history, architecture and excellent weather.
Who would you most like to meet and why?
I think Stephen Fry would be an excellent guest at a dinner party because of his breadth of knowledge and love of Greek history.
How would you describe yourself in 5 words?
Personable, focused, punctual, conscientious and meticulous.
