multi-day hiking trips carrying tent/food, etc., in my backpack.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I was interested in being a traveling missionary doctor and, as an older kid, a stand-up comedian.

JIMMY PUN

Where have you joined us from?
I arrived in Australia recently and this is my first job in Australia. I worked for an Australian-based start-up company before in Hong Kong.

If you won the lottery and had a million dollars what would you do with it?
I would definitely plan to travel around and discover the world.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
When I was young, I loved to play video games and I wanted to develop a RPG game.

NISHANT JHA

Where have you joined us from?
I recently moved from the US and worked there in ‘Health Care of America’ as a Software Consultant.

You’re stranded on an island with one other person. Who would that be and why?
I would choose a seafood chef. He would be very resourceful on an island.

If you could be an animal, what would you be and why?
Panda. I envy his relaxed and laidback lifestyle, and peaceful and easygoing nature.

RAHUL SHARMA

Where have you joined us from?
I joined Ultradata after spending over 4 years at Civica, where I focused on .NET and SQL development. My time at Civica was both enriching and fulfilling as I had the opportunity to contribute to projects that played a crucial role in improving local governance processes.

If you could choose a superpower, what would it be?
It would be mind control. I could make things happen just by thinking about them.

What’s one hobby you’d love to get into?
It would definitely be golf. I have been playing cricket with a local club, and I believe it could help make the transition to golf a bit smoother for me. I am excited about the idea of swapping my cricket bat for some golf clubs.

 

RAVI TOMAR

Where have you joined us from?
I joined from United Petroleum's head office in Hawthorn.

You’re stranded on an island with one other person. Who would that be and why?
My partner is my best companion in every situation or destination around the world, would love to spend time on the island with her.

I would be a lion. Love their dominance and when lions roar the whole forest listens.

 

TINASHE MACHINGARUFU

Where have you joined us from?
I was a UV/PICK Senior Developer at Pentana Solutions for 7 years. Before that, I was working with ANZ Bank for over 13 years as a Developer across various technologies.

You’re stranded on an island with one other person. Who would that be and why?
Nelson Mandela. I would love to learn life tips from him on resilience and true forgiveness. Despite the adversity he went through for over a quarter century, he remained resolute in his selfless cause and demonstrated how much forgiveness truly liberates and brings healing to a nation.

If you could be an animal, what would you be and why?
Lion. I have a natural soft spot for the big cats. The number of lions across Africa has been dwindling due to man activities and poaching. For the past decade, I have committed myself to sponsoring the relentless effort to conserve wildlife in my birth country, Zimbabwe, for future generations. Sadly, only 2,000 lions are left in Zimbabwe and fewer than 25,000 across the whole African continent.
