Meet the team – Alyssa Hawkins, Client Service Officer

What do you do at TAG?

I’m a Client Services Officer in the Investment Advisory division.

How do you prefer to start your day? Tea or Coffee

Usually neither but sometimes I’ll have a Chai Tea.

What was your first job?

My first office job was TAG but before that I used to do netball umpiring and was a Maths tutor for some of my friends.

What are you reading right now?

I’m not much of a reader, unless Psychology textbooks count. Otherwise I’ve been trying to relearn and improve my French so I’ve been gradually making it through Harry Potter à l’école des sorciers.

What’s your favorite movie?

I don’t really have a favourite movie – it’s more whatever movie I’ve seen recently that I really liked. So it’s probably the new Spider-Man: No Way Home movie that just came out.

Do you have any pets?

I’ve got a cat named Coco who terrorises everyone’s ankles and my partner has a cat named Sissy who’s very fluffy and very lazy.

Do you have any special talents?

I can play guitar and sing.

Who’s someone you really admire and why?

It might sound odd but Keanu Reeves. For all the horrible things he’s experienced in his life he still tries to give so much back to his community and focuses a lot of his time and money on helping people.

If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?

My Singapore noodles.

What are three items you’d take with you to a deserted island?

My phone, puzzle books, and laptop.
