My Biography

I am 33 years old, I was born in Poole Dorset where I went through my schooling and Education. originally qualified as a retail manager following a management training programme with one of the UK’s largest superstores. I worked at Head Office in the Planning & Development department. After college, I also spent a year with a charity in the London Boroughs of Wandsworth and Wimbledon working with social services, the LEA and youth service. I also spent time with the homeless in Central London giving advice and assistance.

I now work for a major UK airline and, despite my age, I am keen to bring experience of both urban social skills and cultural knowledge to the council. In my spare time I enjoy walking, cycling and swimming and voluntary first aid with the St John’s Ambulance.

I have also just embarked on a study course in Social Science with the Open University.
