About me:

I like to think of myself as a very conscientious person when it comes to my working life. I’m very fortunate in that I can say that I love my job and coming to work each day is enjoyable and allows me to constantly learn, grow and develop my skills. I recently completed a diploma with the Open University, something which I had wanted to achieve since having to leave university the first time around through ill health. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my daughter and we both love football, particularly Barnsley Football Club where we both have season tickets. It’s always important to have a work/life balance. 

​

What is your approach to work/life balance?

Work keeps me focused and motivated in life, but it is always important for me to enjoy time with my daughter away from the office.

​

If you hadn’t got into the leasing business, what would you be doing instead?

I would be a primary school teacher.

​

What time of day are you at your best, and why?

In the morning when my mind is fresh!

​

If you could have a coffee with anyone at all, who would you pick and any?

​

How do you wind down after work?

I spend time with my daughter, we both love going to the gym and watching football together.
