Why does SEO appeal to you so much?
You need to be methodical and organised; to follow a structure. It’s ever changing, in a perpetual motion: what’s working today might not tomorrow. You cannot only rely on your previous experience and successes but need to constantly question your work and method.

When you are not up to your elbows in keywords what do you do?
I play golf surrounded by kangaroos or walk the National Park, looking for koalas. It might sound cliché or usual for Australians; but not for someone from overseas.

Three things that make you tick?
Spending time with family and friends. Cooking. Reading.

Favourite food?
I love a raclette; but you need to carefully select when you are going to have one. This typical winter dish goes really well with a nice glass of white wine… In those hot summer days, I would pick a salad composed of roquette, parmesan and prosciutto.

If you could host a dinner with any three people, who would you choose and why?
I would say Dominique, my former philosophy teacher: I thoughtfully enjoyed our discussions. My grandmother, I really missed her. And Jamie Oliver, so he could teach my husband how to cook – while I am chatting with the other two!

If given the chance to skip work for a day, how would you spend the entire day?
I’d play golf the entire day then have a raclette with my sister, her husband and mine then we would play cards all night long with a great bottle of wine – while having lots of Belgian chocolates.
