The challenge for the industry is… Never getting comfortable and sticking to what you know, striving to be a leader, game changer and always looking ahead.

The things I like about my job are… In our game, everyday is different. Keep things exciting and challenging.

And the frustrations… You can’t control everything.

If I didn’t work in travel I would be a… Doctor.

Qantas or Virgin? Qantas, I still call Australia home.

My proudest moment was… Being appointed general manager of the Four Points by Sheraton Brisbane.

The naughtiest thing I ever did was… This, I just can’t say…

I try to relax by… Glass of fine Sauvignon Blanc.

The last time I feared for my life… Never feared – I always had faith.

If I can, I always try to avoid… Speeding.

I really wish I had… A few more hours each day.

The best advice I’ve ever received was… Work with enthusiasm as though you were working for the lord rather than people, Eph 6:7.

I don’t understand why… There is so much unrest in the world, why can’t we all just get along.

My greatest weakness is… Impatience.

And my greatest strength… Drive for results.

If I was prime minister I would… Work to reduce the high tax threshold in Australia.

If I won $1 million on the lottery I would… Invest it for my kids’ future.

If I could be someone else for one day I would be… Richard Branson.

I’ve always wanted to travel to… Europe.

My favourite holiday was… The W Bali in Seminyak, it was amazing.
