      being paid to learn and discover new things about the world around us. And having the opportunity to explain the things we learn to other people, like you!

      For me, finding out more about how we think, feel and behave: then I can help people become better at what they do, and be more successful and ultimately happier and more satisfied.

      I like the fact that I (hopefully!) do work that will ultimately help people. I also love the variability of my work. No day is ever the same and i’m often juggling doing 3 or 4 things at once!
