About me
Writing, creation and story telling has been a recreational love of mine since a young age, and a hobby that I was lucky enough to transfer into my education and career.
I'm an experienced communications advisor with a demonstrated history of working in the sports industry.
I've worked in a variety of jobs but have always held a distinct passion for content and media creation.
I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities to nurture my thirst for creativity and am the first to offer my assistance when a new project lands.

Passion AwardLawn Tennis Association / British Tennis
I was overwhelmed with gratitude and shock when awarded the passion colleague award in August 2017. It was an incredible honour to have been nominated by a colleague and to be recognised for my commitment and hard work. The nomination was made for my endless enthusiasm and support provided to colleagues during the organisation and running of the National Coaches Conference in July 2017 at which I volunteered as social media lead.
I was one of four winners of this prestigious award for 2017.
