When not working, I like to spend time with my wife Penny, walking or travelling to interesting places. I love watching live sports and am a member of Newbury Rugby Club and a long suffering season ticket holder at Reading FC. all of the above can be enhanced by a decent real ale, good wine and fine food. I love a quiz and can confidently say that my knowledge of generally useless facts is outstanding!

Outside of work I love spending time with my family and two dogs. I also like to exercise, read, watch football and go out with friends.

I consider myself an adventurous individual who loves exploring the great outdoors. I've lived in three countries - exploring is simply in my nature. Hiking, running, and leisurely strolls in nature are some of my favourite activities.I also really enjoy travelling off the beaten path with my husband and twins. There's nothing quite like embracing new experiences and fully immersing ourselves in our surroundings. It's the perfect way for our family to create cherished memories together.
