Staff picks – by Kate Andrews

Customer service representative Kate Andrews gives us the round-up of what inspires her at the moment.
Name
Kate Andrews a.k.a. avid sneaker collector
Role at MYOB
I’m an Inbound Customer Service and Sales rep. It’s my job to talk to people looking for online accounting software and explain why MYOB is the best choice for their business. I also make sure that anyone already using our software can get the best out of it.
I work in a tight-knit team with great people.
We take calls from 8.00am until 4.30pm and although it’s very busy, we make sure we have fun every day. If you were a fly on the wall you’d see us dancing away with the music on LOUD before the start of a shift.
Cool Fact
I love Basketball. I’m a huge fan of the NBA and I’m stoked for the new season to start.
Boston Celtics are my team, even though I couldn’t tell you why. Maybe it’s because I love green.
I play three times a week. (I’m working on my dunk.)
Stuff I love right now
1. Melbourne Victory
I’m a member and attend every game I can, both home and away. I’ve been a fan since they started eleven years ago.
You get to meet all the players after the game, which is cool because it creates a really strong bond between the team and supporters.
The biggest highlight during that time has definitely been the 2015 Grand Final win. Our seats were on the goal line, which was unreal.
2. Michael Jordan sneakers
I’m an avid collector of Jordans. I have over 360 pairs in my collection, although I only wear about 10 percent of them.
To me there’s nothing better than a box of fresh high-tops. They look good with everything.
Christmas was great because I actually got a pair of Jordans I didn’t have yet!
3. Volunteering
Every Saturday I volunteer with an organisation called Bayley House. They do great work supporting adults with an intellectual disability. I take a group bowling and it’s so much fun.
