What do you do at Counterpart? 

Talk a lot – sometimes making sense.  To quote Eddie Izzard: “70% of what people react to is the look. 20% is how you sound, 10% is what you say. So if you look and sound good…..Everyone will go wild!”

Striving to be the best me I can be

What’s the best thing about your job?

The people I work with

What has been your favorite project so far? 

That would be like picking my favorite child, sorry can’t do that

What’s something most people don’t know about you?

I have 5 older sisters, ranging from 10-18 years older than me

What are 3 words to describe Counterpart?

Smart. Secure. Scaleable. Software.  (Haha it’s 4 but that was the first thing that popped into my head – it was our old tagline – thanks James Burnes)

What is your proudest moment at Counterpart?

A tie each time a client praises the work someone on the team has done

What are you passionate about?

Whatever I’m doing at any given moment.

If you could visit anywhere in the world you’ve never been, where would you go?

New Zealand

What are three material things you couldn’t live without?

Computer, Internet, my computer connected to the internet

What is your favorite tv show/movie and/or book?

It was Game of Thrones until they ruined the last season (books may be able to redeem it if he ever finishes them) so I guess Wheel of Time for now.
