I live locally with my husband Mark. I’ve had a varied career, and came to Financial Services in 2000 working for a life and pensions company.

Early in 2008 I also qualified to advise on Lifetime Mortgages (Equity Release), adding another dimension to the advice I can give.

Outside of work I enjoy keeping fit and motorcycling.
