When did you join the RGS: 2009

What’s the best thing about the RGS? Being surrounded by bright, interesting people of all ages.

What excites you most about coming into work each day? I don’t think that there’s been a day that I have walked from my car towards the Old Building and not thought what a privilege it is to work somewhere with so much history behind it.

If you could change your name to anything, what would it be? Something that everyone spells correctly when I say it.

What luxury would you have on a desert island? Some very nice bubble bath to put in a heated rockpool.

What’s your favourite film and why? Moulin Rouge.  It’s so exuberant and funny, but also clever and moving.

What would your autobiography be entitled? Falling with style

What food will you absolutely not, under any circumstances, eat? Olives

What’s your life philosophy/motto in life? Concentrate on the things you can change, and ignore the things that you can’t.
