WLN – What’s the most exciting thing about your job?

Seeking alternative and innovate solutions for clients. I love it when a client presents me with a problem and I need to find a solution, which is how RapidShield™ became part of our portfolio of services.

Greg-Purple-BG-1WLN – Who’s inspired you most in your career?

Famously, I would say the Formula One Technical Genius Ross Brawn as I admire his determination to succeed but never letting emotion take over. Personally I would say my previous Contracts Manager, Graham Jeffrey, he taught me a lot when I first stepped into junior management.

WLN – If you were an item in a warehouse, what would you be?

CCTV Camera. WLN – If you had to do it all over again, what would you do different? Nothing – Yes, I have made some mistakes which could have been avoided but you can only pick yourself up if you have fallen over.

WLN – What’s the most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened to you at work?

Only a couple of years ago, I was measuring an external line marking project when it started pouring with rain. Despite my “waterproof” clothing, I was completely soaked through to the skin. As it was the last job of the day, I stripped off in the car park and got into my car to drive home, forgetting that I had to pass through the toll booth on the Tamar Bridge. I stopped, paid my toll fee and drove off – With a rather red face!

WLN – Who or what makes you laugh?

My family and friends, we tend to laugh constantly when we get together.

WLN – Do you have any hidden talents?

I play the guitar and sing – Occasionally.

WLN – Who would be your favourite party guest?

Alice Cooper.

WLN – What is the greatest luxury in your life?

I would have to say my home, specifically our lounge which is hidden behind a secret door concealed within a bookcase.

WLN – What is your favourite guilty pleasure?

Tattoos, I am about 50-55% covered at present and am looking forward to my next session!

WLN – Do you have any secret ambitions?

I would love to front a Heavy Metal rock band on stage.

WLN – What’s your dream holiday destination?

The Maldives.

WLN – What are your three favourite movies of all time?

Oceans 11, Iron Man and Skyfall.

WLN – What is your favourite book of all time?

The Adventures of Lord Iffy Boatrace by Bruce Dickinson.

WLN – What’s your favourite pastime?

Music – I love live music, music is constantly on, be it in the car, in the office or at home.

WLN – If you won the Lottery, what would you do?

After helping family and friends, I would invest in the local Civic Hall in my home town to renovate and sound-proof so that it could be re-opened as a live music venue.

WLN – What would be your advice to someone thinking about coming into the industry (apart from “don’t do it”)?

After everything you do, ask yourself “how can I make it better”, listen to yourself and never stop asking.
