Highly VALUED

摘要

There was a moment though when Gareth Brown - as relentlessly optimistic as he appears to be - must have thought that the jewellery gods had abandoned him. The day after returning from the 2015 Loughborough Conference, which he attended as a close-to-qualifying IRV, he was made redundant. A couple of weeks later he sat his CAT exam and two weeks after that his wife gave birth to their first child. A lesser mortal might have thrown in the towel at that point, but Gareth saw the positive - he worked nights in a warehouse so he could study and baby-watch during the day. He created a website and a registered company, so once qualified he'd be ready. And this March he went it alone as an MIRV.
