Are you into social networking?

Absolutely - I like the immediacy of it. I鈥檓 ridiculed for being glued to Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and foursquare.

What鈥檚 your favourite app?

Our LessEn app, of course. It shows the actual energy efficiency of buildings. I鈥檓 proud that we鈥檝e made something invisible more engaging.

What is your preferred means of communication?

Talking face to face - I鈥檓 a very animated speaker so I still wave my arms around when I鈥檓 on the phone!

What digital games do you play?

I鈥檓 famously an Angry Birds addict. My friends actually made me a playable cake for my birthday - it was 1.5m long and the entire pub got involved in catapulting the marzipan birds to destroy it.

Favourite digital gadget at home?

My 3G Kindle keeps me sane on business trips.
