How did you get started in the business?

My first job was as a runner on the TV series ‘Thomas The Tank Engine’. I lied and told them in the interview that I knew how to drive. I couldn’t. When they hired me I had to explain that I had to do my driving test, at which point they revoked the offer. I managed to persuade them that I would pass, and be in that afternoon. Fortunately they agreed and I passed! To this day, I am still a bad driver.

How did you come to be at pulse?

I met Thomas (my business partner) 9 years ago. We were both brought in to produce a short film for a mutual friend. We really hit it off and pulse born out of that.

What are the key values of the Pulse company?

How would you describe the culture at Pulse?
