Quick Q&A
What was your first job?
I got my first job at 16 as a glass collector at my local pub. I worked there for six years; thankfully, I wasn’t just collecting glasses the entire time!
What did you want to be when you were younger?
I never knew what I wanted to be, but when I fell into Wealth Management, I knew I was in the right place.
What is your favourite thing about working for GSB?
It’s so refreshing to work for a company that truly puts the needs of their clients first, especially here in the UAE, with their employee’s welfare coming in as a very close second.
