What is the one app or program you simply cannot live without?

This could be any of the newspaper apps – they are all checked first in the morning, last thing at night, and any moment I’m travelling.

What motivates you at work?

Delivering the best outcome for a client in a challenging situation, but equally seeing the development of Consilium’s team and working with the next generation of healthcare communication leaders.

What is your idea of a perfect day?

Wake up, swim in the sea, coffee & cornetto (Italian croissant), swim, leisurely lunch of fresh fish with white wine, short nap, swim, aperitivo with a negroni, long dinner on a hot night where the dessert, coffee and grappa take longer than the rest of the meal. Repeat.
