1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
I was born in Malta and raised in the United Kingdom, currently living on the outskirts of London, in Berkshire. My previous work experience includes long lengthy hours, not just in one job but two – finance and retail, which now, thanks to this opportunity, I will not have to work the full time 9-5 ever again. I swapped it with an opportunity that allowed me to hustle 24/7 on something I LOVE and build not just an empire, but a legacy.

2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
Since joining PlanNet, my confidence and belief has been the biggest personal development. Stepping out of my comfort zone is really where the magic happens. If you want something you've never had, then you've got to do something you've never done. This could be the smallest task. The question I always ask myself in challenging times is, “When was the last time you did something for the first time?”

3. What drives you; what motivates you?
Success and Impact. Success is no accident. It is hard work, learning, perseverance, sacrifice, but most of all, loving what you do. It is never too late to be whoever you want to be; chase the dream. That is my forever motivating motto...and to have financial and time freedom, which complements Impact. Not only am I bettering a life for my future, family, and present, I am also impacting other people’s lives. Everyone is born to make an impact. This opportunity brings people together. Amazing things in business are never done by one person.They're done by a team of people.

4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
My mum is my role model. She inspired me to never give up; she made me believe I could do anything I set my mind to. She never believed in the words 'I can’t’ and she hated hearing the word 'but.’ My mum inspired me to always be the best version of myself in order to achieve as much in life as possible. That is where saying YES to this opportunity came from.

5. The three words that describe you best are:
AMBITIOUS , DRIVEN, and PASSIONATE.

6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
If you risk nothing, then you risk everything. Failure is not the opposite of success; it's part of the success. Always remember this.

7. What does your life look like five years from now?
Five years from now, I won’t need to imagine or dream of time, financial, and personal freedom. I will have it.
