I studied Ancient History at Swansea University and graduated in 1998.

I spent 4 years working for a regional publication in Liverpool as a sales rep before moving to Australia in 2004. The next 10 years were spent living and working in Melbourne. I worked in the travel industry managing a business (Flight Centre) and returned to the UK in 2014.

Prior to my current role in Innovation Adoption I worked for the Patient Safety Collaborative and was involved in organising events for Q members in Wessex. I now support various projects and my day to day responsibilities vary from Event Management to designing newsletters, assisting with the implementation of innovations in Primary Care and helping to spread innovations across Wessex.

I have an FA level one coaching qualification and in my spare time enjoy managing one of my son's football teams. I love to travel and have explored much of Australia as well as many other destinations in Europe, Asia, the South Pacific and America.
