WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME AND WHY?

THIS IS A HARD ONE BUT IF I WAS TO SAY ONE SONG IT WOULD BE "GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE" BY ABBA. THIS SONG HAS SUCH AN ELECTRICITY TO IT AND HAS A GREAT MIX OF DISCO AND DANCE MUSIC FEEL TO IT.

IF YOU COULD WRITE YOUR OWN JOB TITLE THAT BEST DESCRIBES WHAT YOU DO HERE, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

FIRSTLY, I SEE MYSELF JUST AS A BARBER WHO LOVES CREATING AND MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY. THEN I WOULD SAY AS THE OWNER, YOU BECOME A JACK OF ALL TRADES AND FIND YOURSELF DOING LOTS OF DIFFERENT TASKS, WHICH I LOVE AS NOT ONE DAY IS THE SAME.

WHAT DO YOU ENJOY ABOUT THE WORK YOU DO?

I FEEL EXTREMELY LUCKY TO DO WHAT I DO AS NOT ONE DAY IS LIKE WORK, AND THE MORE I SPEAK TO PEOPLE, IT SEEMS LIKE A RARE THING TO HAVE THIS. BEING IN A BARBER SHOP ENVIRONMENT IS A VERY SETTLING EXPERIENCE FOR ME AS I HAVE GROWN UP IN A SALON ENVIRONMENT SINCE I WAS A YOUNG CHILD AND JUST FEEL SO MUCH AT HOME. THE WAY YOU CAN MAKE SOMEONE'S DAY BETTER AND REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE IS PROBABLY THE BEST ASPECT THAT BARBERING BRINGS, AND I FEEL WHEN I AM CUTTING HAIR IT IS LIKE MY OWN KIND OF MEDITATION.

WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES?

RUNNING, CYCLING, BARBERING (HAHA), AND JUST HANGING OUT WITH MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS. ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS TO DO OUT OF WORK IS HOST DINNER PARTIES AS COOKING FOR PEOPLE IS MUCH LIKE BARBERING AND BRINGS HAPPINESS.

IF YOU COULD TRAVEL ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE WOULD IT BE AND WHY?

ITALY, THIS PLACE IS JUST THE BEST. MYSELF AND MY FAMILY HAVE BEEN THERE MULTIPLE TIMES AND CAN'T GET ENOUGH. WE ALWAYS DREAM OF OWNING A LITTLE VILLA IN THE COUNTRYSIDE WHEN WE RETIRE
