Hi Readers!  So you’re interested in yours truly?

For starters, I’ve been with the JBS Team for 2 and a half years bringing my total experience in the Financial Services industry to just over 6.

My role within JBS is Risk Client Services and I take care of all things relating to Life Insurance, by helping our clients protect what’s important to them; their Families, Assets and Income.

How do I protect all of that you ask?  I’m a superhero disguised as a Risk Client Services Officer!  Just kidding!  I simply complete a complex analysis of the aforementioned using techniques bestowed upon me from great minds.

Have to keep it vague or everyone will be doing it!

So what makes ME tick you ask?

Like most I enjoy traveling, playing/watching sports, training in mixed martial arts and I recently got hitched in Las Vegas!  So maybe not quite like most.  I’d blog about my wedding but my Wife prefers to keep it out of the public eye.  Oooo, you’re intrigued now?! Too bad!

Something a lot of people may or may not know about me is I love all things photography – Places, Selfies, People, Food, Pets, Abstract…etc etc.

I’ve done a bit of traveling over the years and took thousands of pictures, after reviewing them I realised that 99% were rubbish or inadequate depictions of my memories.  So I said to myself, “It’s time to turn that 99% rubbish into 99% AWESOME!”…verbatim, aloud.   How you may ask?  I simply learnt how to use my camera…properly.  I studied a little, attended a few workshops and now I shoot around 60% awesomely, well at least I think so.

Here’s a snapshot of my work for you to enjoy, which can also be viewed on my Instagram – http://www.instagram.com/itookdispic
