When at a restaurant, what are you most likely to order? :
Anything unconventional and new - I love going to locally owned restaurants with a creative chef and unique atmosphere.
Who inspired you to get into the field you are in? :
I've been destined to a career in technology and media since I was very young. When I was about 10, I was outside playing with some friends when I stopped dead in my tracks, looked at my watch and proclaimed, "I have to go! Its just about 6 o'clock…the news is on!". And with that, I really had no choice.
What do you think is your greatest strength? :
Again, is this a job interview? I thought I owned the place....
What is you fondest memory? :
I don't have time to remember. I'm too busy living in the future.
What is normally playing in your headphones? :
I'm a huge fan of podcasts. Usually from the TWiT network, the CBC or my daily listen, the Bill Good Show podcast. Musically, my tastes change like the wind. Right now i'm big into Arcade Fire, Brandon Flowers/The Killers, John Mayer and all sorts of great music from ever genre under the sun. Of course, i'm a big fan of Dayna Manning's albums :)
If you blogged, what would you blog about? :
Does this feel like a job interview to anyone else?
If you were a super hero, who would you be? :
A cross between Peter Mansbridge and Captain Planet.
