❓ Tell us about yourself
I am a 50-year-old Welshman living in England for the last 30 years. My greatest achievement is being a Dad to 2 boys and 3 girls aged 17 to 27.
At heart, I am an engineer. I love playing with the latest technology and am a real Apple fan. I have a Software Degree and a Diploma in Marketing and have spent my career working in International Business Development. I have built 4 companies over the years in Embedded Software, Apps, Virtual Reality, and my current company that I started 10 years ago doing Automotive Business Development in Europe and the US.
I am a real data nerd who loves to manipulate spreadsheets and do experiments on Linkedin. I absolutely love to travel and have been to Australia twice. When I retire, I would love to take a Camper across the US.
In my spare time, I can be found on the golf course watching a James Bond Movie or Monty Python…..is this a 5-minute argument or did you book the full half hour ?! I love to BBQ and will BBQ all year round in all weather, including Christmas Day in the UK in the rain or snow !
❓ What is an interesting fact about yourself?
I lost 32 kg (5 stone) by going low carb. Another interesting fact – the Silence of the Lambs Actor, Anthony Hopkins, is an ex-school boy for my school in Wales.
❓ How did you first find out about Clubhouse?
I was invited by a LinkedIn trainer in January 2021.
❓ What do you love most about being a part of Sticky Beak Club?
So many nationalities and different backgrounds can be found in such a great variety of rooms. It is also a great place to switch off and join some more light-hearted rooms like “Ask an Aussie”!
❓ What is your favorite other club on Clubhouse, and why?
LinkedIn is my social media of choice so I love the LinkedIn clubs like LinkedIn(ternational) and LinkedIn Mastery.
❓ Who is your favorite person on Clubhouse and why?
What a question! Well, I have to say Bryan Lip. He just gives, gives, and gives on Clubhouse.
❓ If you host a room on Clubhouse – tell us more about it!
I co-host the Linkedin tips, tricks, and advice room at 1pm UK time every weekday.
❓ What tip would you share with people who are new to Clubhouse?
Follow the mods on stage and investigate different topics regularly. You never know what you might learn and who you might meet.
❓ What resonates most about 🦘Australia for you?
The culture is similar to how the UK used to be before we got so PC.
❓ If there is one thing Sticky Beak could do to improve what would it be?
More rooms during UK morning time.
❓ If there was one thing Clubhouse could do to improve what would that be?
Better management of the hallway and improved searching.
