The great thing about my job is… The locations it has taken me, the experiences and the people I have met, no day is ever the same.

The challenge for industry is… Providing value and innovation to counteract the continual discounting

My greatest achievement is… Relocating back to Hobart (my home town) and opening a new property – The Grand Mercure Hobart Central Apartments. 

The biggest thing in MICE this year will be… The Grand Mercure Hobart Central Apartments

I try to relax by… Cooking and reading

I don’t understand why… more people don’t recycle.

Currently the album playing on my iPod is… Arctic Monkey’s

My favourite venue is… The MCG you can’t beat the atmosphere.

I am scared to death of… The dentist

I can’t live without… My Hair straighter

Blackberry or iPhone… Blackberry

I really wish I had… the ability to sing

If I could invite four people to a dinner party, they’d be… Heston Blumenthal, Bart Cummings, Maya Angelou, my partner Wade.
