I was born in the Northeast of England, my journey to date has been a vibrant tapestry woven with a passion for design, and adventures. In 2006, the allure of Canada beckoned, and I embraced the opportunity for a new chapter in her life.
Whilst in the UK I studied Interior Design and Three-Dimensional Design, and achieved a Higher National Diploma in Interior design, and a bachelor’s degree in Three-Dimensional Design. On the successful completion of my bachelor’s degree, I worked within the field of interior design, specializing in show homes.

Making Canada my home, I have had three children here and officially became a citizen in 2011, adnd I have lived in Okotoks since Dec 2006.

I came from a sport driven family and played netball and field hockey to a regional level, this spurred me to qualify as a Netball coach whilst int he UK. Whilst in Canada the opportunity to put my coaching skills into practice at a Provincial level presented itself in 2017 and I have coached the Alberta Provincial squads since. I have also had the opportunity to travel with the National team as assistant coach for an International event.

As life has unfolded, I have navigated through roles in retail, from Sales Manager to B2B sales, gathering valuable experiences along the way, and more recently providing frontline support within the airline industry.
