Russ鈥痠s鈥痵harp,鈥痲uick-witted and irresistibly mischievous.鈥疉 natural storyteller, Russ will dazzle you with tales – from his youth on the outback, to his medical training in Singapore, to the time he saved some celebrity’s life. Did it all鈥痑ctually happen? Well... don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story. Even our sticklers can’t help but warm to Russ, as he does it all with a wink and gets everyone involved.
Why is your starting point with humanity to always expect a flaw?Russ Faber
Russ is fiercely鈥痠ntelligent but鈥痙oesn’t show this off. He’d rather let someone else feel the warm glow of鈥痵uccess, and鈥痜inds nothing more exciting than the talent of others. Russ is an eternal optimist, and he sees the world through a rose-tinted prism. This creates conflict with more sceptical colleagues, who find his ability to see good in everyone and everything both grinding and exhausting. Where most accept that some things in life just suck, Russ insists on finding a positive spin.
