TORI Perspectives Summer 17 01

Issue 7 | Summer 2017
What are your favourite 3 cities you have
visited?
I would probably choose London as my favourite
city. I’ve been lucky enough to have lived in quite a
few places, however I’ve never lived in London even
though my daughters live there now and I do things
there a lot. It’s such a multicultural city with so many
exciting things going on. The breadth of what you
can do in London is just about wider than anywhere
else in the world.
The second city I would choose would be San
Francisco. We lived quite close to it while living in
the States and I loved the cool little suburbs. It’s a
really laid-back, friendly city.
The third is Paris. We used to live on the outskirts of
Paris and once again it’s an interesting city – lots of
museums, good sports venues but also the food!
If you could time travel, where would you
go and why?
a. 100 years into the future - I think it would
be fascinating to see just how things have changed,
how we travel, how we communicate and most of
all how we solved Cyber Security
If you weren’t doing what you do now,
what career would you love to have?
I’d probably be an Architect. It’s something I’ve
been interested in from a young age actually. When
playing with Lego I used to make freaky looking
buildings. These days I’m interested in the work
of Norman Foster and Anish Kapoor. I’ve always
watched Grand Designs and have aspirations of
building my own house.
Why did you join TORI?
There’s a big opportunity at TORI. Cyber Security
is everywhere, in everyone’s lives and impacts us
at all different levels. I want to work in a way that
has a holistic view of Cyber Security that is best for
the customer rather than working on products and
solutions and how they can be implemented. TORI
offers that space.
