SvK (sorry, not sorry) has recently joined Wonderland as a Senior Consultant, helping us to work on some stonking client projects.
With almost a decade of comms and PR experience under her belt, Sarah’s career has spanned everything from fashion and homewares to all things FMCG, both locally and globally, bringing with her a wealth of experience from across the world…along with some mega LOLs.
But we wanted to know more. So, with a limit of just TEN things, here she goes…:
1. I’ve travelled to as many countries as years I’ve lived and now keep this up by visiting a new country every year…obviously (I’m also clearly a whizz at maths)
2. I have a qualification in interior design – but largely so I can claim ‘expert rights’ for any interior decisions at home
3. I (used to be able to…) play the saxophone and piano – and keep my sax in the attic in the hope I’ll crack it out for a jam sesh one day… (it’s been nearly two decades)
4. I am a triathlete (did one once, it 100% counts) and a former sprinter (heavy emphasis on former)
5. I lived in Australia for years (but am not actually Australian – contrary to what many believe apparently) and whilst there, my most Aussie experience was being hospitalised by a spider bite
6. I am allergic to kiwis…the fruit, not the people – love the people!
7. I love all animals BUT I have a mild fear of cats – only house cats though, with big cats you know what you’re getting, basically I value honesty and let’s face it – cats would kill you if they juuuust had the size…the ‘cuteness’ is all lies
8. I am half Dutch (hence the ‘van’ – no, there’s no hyphen and yes, it’s a little v) sadly I don’t speak it but I do take advantage of the double Christmas! (Thanks St. Nick)
9. My guilty pleasure is reading crime thriller novels (Harlan Coben is my absolute favourite) and I always thought I’d write one, one day – watch this space…
10. I have always been a woman of my word – heck I decided I wanted to work in PR before I even hit my teens!
