Wolf. I like being in a pack, but I also enjoy my alone time. And people tell me I have a great instinct and intuition. Also I always protect the people I love and care about.

What are you most proud of?
I am really proud of everything I managed to succeed in by myself, due to hard work and persistence. The pleasure and pride you feel when you reach your goals by working hard is very fulfilling.

What movie scene has really stayed with you? And why
The movie Awake, a psychological thriller that tells the story of a man undergoing heart surgery while experiencing a phenomenon called “anesthetic awareness” which leaves him awake but paralysed throughout the operation. So he can hear everything that is going on during the surgery only to realise the friends/doctors he trusted are not the same persons he knew when he was awake. I absolutely love psychological thrillers that can play with your mind.

If you could pick anyone at all (alive or dead) to go out for the evening with, who would it be?
It would be both my granddads who have both passed away. I miss them so much. I would love to spend an evening with them, talking and laughing like we used to
