In which CMS office (besides your own) would you like to work and why? 

In the London office because it’s a great city and I love the British culture.

If you weren’t a lawyer, how would you earn your living?

In my dreams, playing golf. In real life, I don’t know!

What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?

No pain, no gain.
