(aka Sar Sar)

Job: Story teller – I tell the story of Intrinsic, its products and vision and I also tell the inspiring stories of everyday people for our website.
When I started: July 2003
Favourite thing about Intrinsic: The family feel and the big dreams.

My fondest childhood memory

So many…bush barbeques with my grandparents, riding a trike around our orange property, learning to waterski at Lake Bonney in Barmera, playing tennis with my Dad, swimming every summer afternoon at the Ramco Primary School pool…

My parents always told me

To use people’s names when I said hello

My first paid job

Cutting apricots…then picking rockmelons…then teaching swimming…then working in the intimate apparel department at John Martin’s!

If I had a super power

I’d wiggle my nose like Sam on Bewitched and the shopping, washing, cleaning and cooking would be done in an instant!

Savoury or sweet?

Savoury…with a little chocolate on the side

Diamonds or pearls?

Diamonds

If I won a million dollars, I would

Pay for our home renovation and then visit our friends in the United Kingdom.

On my last holiday I went to

Burra Gorge on a camping weekend

The best part of my job at Intrinsic is

Brainstorming sessions. I love coming up with new marketing and product ideas.

I couldn’t live without

My ugg boots during winter in chilly Clare

My ancestors come from

Scotland

My stripper name is (first pet name plus first street name)

Bogey Perry

My favourite flower is

David Austin roses and freesias

My most memorable fancy dress costume

Toto, the dog out of the Wizard of Oz

Sporting trophies I’ve won

“The Boob Cup”…not to be confused with a “Booby Prize”… is the most recent addition. It was awarded to my husband and I after winning a casual tennis tournament in a little country town called Booborowie in the mid north of South Australia.

Academic awards I’ve won

I was a bit of a square at school, so I have a few high school academic awards

My pet(s)

Daisy, our seven-year-old, much-neglected-since-having-children golden retriever

My dream home

As we’re currently renovating, my dream home is one that is finished!

Hobbies

Home decorating, reading, tennis

The last time I stayed up all night

Never – I’m an eight-hours-a-night girl.

My most cherished possession

My grandmother’s engagement ring and the bracelet she gave me before she died.
