What are the top three traits you are seeking in your ideal clients?

Trusts me
Listens
Honest and straightforward

How much client interaction is ideal for you?

I don’t do anything without discussing it with my clients first and getting their express approval.
I see us as partners with regular contact, but I require some autonomy to do my job effectively.
I prefer that the client is hands-off and trusts me to handle their case for them (although I will, of course, check in with them whenever required).

What is your personal motto?

Do or not do. There is no try. (Yoda)
