I am married and have a 15 year old son who attended Five Ways Primary School.

I have been a Governor at Five Ways for 6 years, 4 years as a Parent Governor and 2 years as a Community Governor.

I have worked in the commercial sector which entailed training new staff in Customer service.  I have worked as a Office Manager extensively in and with schools and also as a Education Welfare Officer providing support to families and school age children.

Currently, I am working with Staffordshire Children's Trust Common Assessment Framework team, which involves training practitioners in Education Health and other children's service agencies.

With regards to hobbies, I am very passionate about cricket especially watching my son who plays at Regional Level.  I also enjoy photography and Wii Fit!
