Name: Reena Solanki
Job Title: Business development manager
WHAT DID YOU DO BEFORE JOINING F&T?
I’ve worked in media sales for over 3 years, starting at Global media but have a background in retail and leisure, two activities which i’m really passionate about- shopping and entertainment!
WHAT STANDS OUT FOR YOU THE MOST ABOUT F&T?
Being a big fish in a small pond, feeling part of a family who truly value client success.
HOW DID YOU COPE DURING LOCKDOWN?
I moved my office upstairs, as when working from the dining room- I became too friendly with my fridge and my elasticated bottoms! After a long day being glued to a screen, I am lucky enough to live in the sticks so enjoy long walks with my other half, come rain or shine!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING TO DO OUTSIDE OF WORK?
I paint pictures, I sew and I love travelling to cities with great museums- anything that detaches me from the day to day screentime is sheer escapism.
WHAT’S YOUR GO TO TV SHOW TO BINGE WATCH?
It recently only took me two days to binge five guys a week!
First dates basically anything dating related- i’m not sure why but i’m obsessed!
WHAT SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM DO YOU USE THE MOST?
I love anything visual so it’s got to be instagram.
WHAT WAS YOUR MOST FUN/EMBARRASSING #WFH MOMENT SO FAR?
Catching a neighbour sunbathing topless in her garden, basking in the sun. I must admit for a second-I did think- well why not?!
