My favourite book or movie...my favourite books tend to be business success stories such as Richard Branson or Bill Gates. Russell Crowe's Gladiator is my favourite movie - a great story of determination in the face of adversity.
If I could go anywhere ...you would find me in the game parks of South Africa or relaxing on a beach somewhere.
If I wasn't doing this job ...I'd be a bloodstock agent. Racehorse breeding is a big passion of mine so analysing pedigrees and buying or syndicating horses would be a great line of work.
The person I most admire ...beyond all the standard business leaders, it would have to be my mother. She brought our family up on her own, teaching me determination, respect, humility and compassion through her actions. These are attributes I try to bring to my business.
I really hate...unsolicited calls from marketing contact centres and spam email.
