What do you do at Narrative?
I’m one of the founders, meaning basically I do a little bit of everything. And when I don’t do that, I work with Narrative’s communication and marketing.
What’s one thing we should know about you?
For someone working with marketing, I’m embarrassingly bad at promoting myself.
What book have you recently finished, or are currently reading?
Last one I finished: The Imperfectionists. Fantastic story, or bunch of stories actually, about a made up newspaper in Rome. And then I constantly start reading the first 50 or so pages in any book someone tells me to read. Then I get bored and switch to next.
Favorite non-work-related website:
Quora is probably the stickiest one. It has a dangerously, time consuming mix of interesting and useless information. Like this thread: http://www.quora.com/ Tips-and-Hacks-for-Everyday- Life
What did you want to be as a child?
Archeologist. Digging in sandboxes and working with dinosaurs at the same time seemed strangely exciting to me as a 5 year old. Not so much now.
Best advice you have ever received:
Say yes.
Favorite Quote:
I have used this so much it gets silly, but I must say this John Lennon line from the song “Beautiful Boy”: “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”
Moment you would like to relive:
The birth of my son.
