I have been in quite a few industries, but always working with databases. I have been in superannuation, banking and finance, telecommunications, and the electricity industry … I am a jack of all trades.

If you could choose a superpower, what would it be?

Every time I mention X-ray vision HR complain, so I’ll limit myself to super speed and the ability to rearrange molecules. I would also love to fly, but flying in itself is not great (just ask any duck during hunting season).

What’s one hobby you’d love to get into?

I would love to do stage and ballroom dancing. I have a lot of Fred Astaire films. Unfortunately, he makes it look very easy. He could dance with a broomstick and make it look good.
