The people I work around. Lots of knowledge and experience.

What’s the best thing about working at City Hall?

Buying my own house.

If you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be and why? 
A group of people who would ask questions would be more interesting to me than a one-on-one conversation. I would love to listen to Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk talk about space flight.
