Thumbs up Tell us about yourself!

Hi all

I was asked to be the 'meet a staff member' on my works' internal newsletter, and was asked to answer a few questions for it.

I thought it might be a good idea and a bit of fun to ask those same questions here and get to know each other a bit better.

The questions are:

Hobbies?

Favourite Food?

Favourite Movie and Why?

What is something that your co-workers might not know about you?

Which 3 people would you invite to your perfect dinner party and why?

and here are my answers:

Hobbies?
My three main hobbies are Karate, Astronomy and Photography. Although I rarely have time to do any of them as much as I’d like to.

Favourite Food?
I love a good (western) Thai dish – usually Satay Chicken, Chicken and Cashew Nuts, Massaman Beef

Favourite Movie & Why?
I love technology and sci-fi movies, like Avatar, Matrix, Star Wars etc with some good Action and War movies thrown in too (eg. Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers (TV Series)).

What is something that your co-workers might not know about you?
• I’m a 1st Dan black belt in Karate and compete in Kumite (sparring) tournaments
• I founded and run the largest and most active astronomy website in the southern hemisphere (http://www.iceinspace.com.au)
• I enjoy reading and learning about World War 1 and World War 2 history
• I’ve taken detailed images of Jupiter and its moons, craters on the Moon and more.
• I’m also a bit of a technology nerd and used to play online games.

Which 3 people would you invite to your perfect dinner party and why?
Neil Armstrong, Richard Winters (101st Airborne) and Bruce Lee... all for fairly obvious reasons. So many questions!

Your turn!
