What is your favourite thing about working at Outsourced Events?
Collaboration and friendship
If you could invite four people to dinner (living or dead) who would you invite and why?
- Anitta – She is a Brazilian singer who came from a poor community and made an international career. Would love to talk about the background of her success.
- Michelle Obama – Obama after meeting Michelle's ex-boyfriend said "glad you met me honey, else you would be married to this restaurateur". Michelle replied, "well you should be glad, because else this restaurateur would be the president of America". I think to have time to talk to her about female empowerment, marriage and sacrifices you make through life would be really interesting.
- Ayrton Senna – He was a F1 driver, a sport that I follow and he achieved exceptional things in his short career. As a F1 fan I would love to hear about high performance, dedication and the feeling of putting your life at such high risk.
- Princess Diana – She broke through traditions, an icon for courage and cultural impact.
