About Me:
I left school when I was 16 and went straight to work.  In my 20’s I owned my own dance studio but the calling of the stage was strong and took a 6-month contract to work on stage in South Korea with a British dance company.  Due to a fall off the stage, I couldn’t carry on with my professional dance career so became an Au Pair for 3 years to a German family.  I got married in 1990 but sadly divorced (amicably) in 2020.  I have been self-employed since 2008 and I am currently a complementary therapist.  I am in the process of closing my business down (currently max 6 clients a month) due to the wear and tear on my shoulder so have been looking for something less manual but also something I would love to do.  I have 3 grown-up children – 1x of my own who is 25 and lives with me and works from home currently, and 2x stepchildren who live up by Middlesborough. I have 3x grandchildren.  I have done 3 personal photo shoots for my own enjoyment and then 1x professional one (in Soho this last week).  All of which have been so much fun.  The change of outfits, make-up, hair etc for the professional one has been really enjoyable and was lovely to show off.
On a more personal level, I prefer Halloween to Christmas but am not a Bah Humbug.  My son and I have just adopted a retired hearing dog for the deaf.  He is 13 and a cockerpoo.  I have no firm commitments and when I manage to get full-time work as a mature model, I can give up the remaining massage clients and start to enjoy life again to the full.  I believe variety is the spice of life and would prefer to be working than not working.
