In hindsight…
What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever had to make? Why? In hindsight my life has been punctuated with tough decisions, yet they have all been interspersed with relatively easy choices. So effectively, I can’t give a qualifiable response. Yes, I’ve been challenged, had to face many harrowing situations, yet at the end of the day…

What wouldn’t I do?
If you didn’t need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time? I’d get around to all the things I need to finish. Perhaps I’d attempt to study astrophysics and spend countless hours deep space gazing. Perhaps I’d get the book that I’m writing finished faster. Perhaps I’d get a Potter’s wheel and…

Who me?
What’s the first impression you want to give people? An accurate and honest first impression. One that leaves no room for ambiguity, confusion or assigning their assumptions, expectations or preconceived notions of who I am. Additionally, I’d like to be viewed as being a person of integrity and compassion. I don’t care about being likeable,…
