How do you while away your days at Whitewater? I'm an Art Director.

And how long have you been with the company? Joined April 1998.

What life events led you here? Graduated in 1991 with a degree in graphics from the London College of Printing (now the London College of Communication). Worked in London for two years for a couple of design agencies, specialising in blue-chip publications and branding. Took a year out to travel the world, taking in southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, USA and Canada. Received a job offer from an agency in Wellington, New Zealand, doing the same type of work with a couple of environmental clients thrown in. Stayed for three years. Came home, freelanced for a bit and then joined Whitewater.

It must be hard to choose, but: What has been your best Whitewater moment? Skinny-dipping at midnight in October, the night before my birthday, in the Dutch North Sea under instruction from my Creative Director and other senior management.

Share your philosophy: I believe that sometimes, on occasion, one should not listen to one's Creative Director.

When it all gets too much - what keeps you going? Real ale.

Surely there must be more... do you have any additional skills? Photography, painting and decorating, gardening, skinny-dipping

Thanks Simon! Now get back to work.
