What’s your career history?

I have just returned to work after a career break to look after my two young children. Prior to that I worked in Oxford for the NHS in the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme as a Programme Manager. It was so exciting to be part of such a ground breaking new screening programme. I also spent a large part of my career working in London managing events both in the UK and around the globe. I got to travel to some great places including Bermuda, Egypt, Houston and Abu Dhabi.

What have been your impressions of the events industry?

It’s such a fast paced and vibrant industry. There is an event for just about everything!

If you were going to run an event, what would it be?

Anything to do with skiing and the mountains which of course would include some form of après ski.

The song you’d sing at karaoke?

I am a big Take That fan – hard to choose but maybe Relight My Fire.

Worst job you’ve had (hopefully not this one 😉)?

Teaching English whilst I was living in Germany. I wasn’t born to be a teacher!

Favourite Film?

Walk the Line.

Favourite Food?

Curry.

Favourite Drink?

A large Gin and Tonic.

Favourite Holiday/Place to go on holiday?

Skiing – I love being in the mountains.

If you could travel anywhere in the world tomorrow, where would you go?

I would love to go to New Zealand.

What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?

Paddleboarding, walking my dog and hanging out with my friends and family.

What one thing could you never give up?

Chocolate.

Your biggest achievement?

My two crazy Kids.

Tell us something we don’t know about you.

I used to work as a film location manager and worked on some great TV programmes including Spooks and Midsomer Murders.
