<p>What's the best part of your job? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Seeing the growth in Zenith people over the years - media planners and </p><p>buyers developing into media directors, media directors into managing </p><p>directors. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>And the worst? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Rushing to catch the next plane. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Your all-time favourite film and why? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>There isn't one favourite, but Top Gun is definitely up there. A classic </p><p>guys film with a fighter pilot who gets the girl. I can watch this movie </p><p>over and over. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Favourite book or CD? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>There are many, but worth reading is Without a Doubt written by Marcia </p><p>Clark - the attorney who tried the OJ Simpson case. I believe that you </p><p>can learn more from losing than winning. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Favourite restaurant and dish? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Chicken rice, Singapore hawker stall. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Do you have a favourite gadget? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>My latest is a Nokia wireless modem to send emails, surf the web and </p><p>make calls from my notebook computer. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Favourite fashion designer? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>I prefer American designers with an emphasis on comfort - Kenneth Cole, </p><p>Banana Republic and Gap. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>What are your hobbies? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>When you have young kids they tend to get first call on that time. My </p><p>three kids are my pet project at the moment. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Where did you go on your holiday? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Boston - a city rich in history, colour. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Who would you want to play you in a movie? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Denzel Washington - sure, he doesn't look like me, but he's got box </p><p>office appeal and that counts in Hollywood. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>How would you title your movie? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>The Young & the Restless. I'm thinking it would have a Dylan </p><p>soundtrack. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Please finish this line, I wish I could ... have been a creative </p><p>director. </p><p><BR><BR> </p>
