She started her early career with rating guides and issuing manual cover-notes, and moved onto developing and growing multi-million pound accounts, to now working for an international I.T solutions software company!

On a personal note what makes her tick is travelling; new places, new cultures, and history. She enjoys meeting new people from all walks of life, and all backgrounds, as well as hearing their stories and sharing hers!
When not travelling she spends time with her family dragging them on random 'drop of the hat' adventures making everlasting memories.
