Personal Q&A

  • How do you like to receive feedback?

    Directly, via a 1-1 call and ideally with a bulleted email. I don't like when people try to skirt around an issue.

  • How do you like to run meetings?

    In person if it involves creativity, strategy, or a lot of unknowns. Online if its a check-in, recurring meeting, or centred around clear goals or outcomes.

  • What part of your job gives you most energy?

    Innovating with the team
