What can colleagues and friends expect when they are around you?

They can expect someone who is dependable, dedicated and who has a strong work ethic, but who also ensures there is always time for fun. I strive to foster meaningful connections with people from all walks of life and create an atmosphere of trust, collaboration and positivity.

​

What are your guiding principles at work?

My guiding principles are humility, reliability and balance. I recognise the importance of being honest and humble enough to ask for help when it's needed.

​
What motivates you at work and in life?

I am motivated by making a positive difference in the lives of those around me. I am driven by acknowledgement for a job well done as well as opportunities to grow both personally and professionally. I am also motivated by my desire to have soul enriching adventures through travel and quality time with loved ones.

​

What is the most unexpected thing you ever did?

I talked my way into meeting the entire England Cricket team in their dressing room after a test match. The prospect of meeting the likes of Stuart Broad and Alastair Cook prompted an unprecedented level of persuasiveness from 18 year-old me!
