ABOUT ME
I am an upbeat, confident and reliable person. I worked for many years in big corporations in senior management roles that required me to lead and inspire hundreds of people. My down time was spent energetically pursuing my love of acting and singing in the amateur musical theatre and choral world.
I’m very passionate about bringing out the best in people. I’ve moved into choir leadership in recent years. I’m particularly proud of the online choir I established through the Covid lockdown in 2020 that developed singing skills whilst keeping people’s social network alive.
I throw myself 100% into my responsibilities. I am diligent at learning lines. I love working in and/or leading a team but I’m also very self-motivated.
I keep myself fit and healthy. I have a very active social life. I enjoy walking, nature, skiing and travelling around the world with my husband in our campervan. We once shipped it to the USA for a year for a 30,000-mile road trip…I’ve got plenty of stories to tell about that!
