Name: Tony Been

Any nicknames? T, TB, T-Bone, Beeny - Us Aussies love a nickname, however aren’t always the most inventive…

Position: Potentially a question that’s a bit too personal, but since you asked, I have no firm preference and I’m generally open to anything that works & others are comfortable with…  

Work-wise, I’m our Australian Country Manager

Hometown: Brisbane (aka Bris-vegas)

Currently working in: Sydney

Why Wrapp? It’s a seriously smart idea that’s easy, heaps of fun & adds value to all involved.  From a personal perspective, it’s really nice to be involved with such an amazing group of people and a platform that actively & inherently shares kind thoughts & happiness…  Also, who can say no to a cartoon shark or free stuff from awesome brands?!

Favorite Wrapp purchase: Tough call - either an assortment of Lorna Jane athletic gear for my girlfriend (Australia’s first in-store Wrapp purchase!!) OR my recently acquired Bjorn Borg undergarments - all the support you need whilst beaming with personality on the outside - FUN-ctional!

Craziest thing you’ve seen happen at Wrapp: A pack of scantily clad Swedes, filled to the eyeballs with snaps & crayfish, jumping into water far too cold for anyone’s good!

Hidden talents: None that I know of - I used to be an actor, however that wasn’t so hidden & given I struggled to get a gig, a strong case is hard to make for the talented component as well…

Coolest Trip You’ve Ever Been On: Selling milk flavouring straws in Guatemala, Peru & India…

• The rarity: Raging till the early hours of Sunday morning
• The reality: Nice dinner and a cheeky bottle of red with friends
• The dream: Sitting on the couch in tracksuit pants with Thai food, a cold beer & footy on TV 

You’re an Expert on: Two things: The Brisbane Lions triple premiership winning team of the early noughties.  The booming social gifting market in Australia!

What Was Your Dream Job When You Were A little Kid: Astronaut/Paleontologist/in a best case scenario - an astronaut that discovers alien dinosaurs on foreign planets
