Apollon Powell - Future CEO

Apollon is the youngest member of the Powell Team; he is small but mighty and what he lacks in experience he makes up for in enthusiasm. Apollon is creative, strong-willed and determined. He certainly knows how to negotiate a good deal! In his spare time, he enjoys climbing, drawing and reading books. He also likes magnets, tractors and anything with wheels. When he grows up, Apollon wants to be a builder or a dinosaur. He can’t decide!
