About Me:
I absolutely love being photographed & have always loved taking photos and being in them. I’m a smiler I can’t help it. You put a camera in front of me and I want to smile. I’m an artist by trade, having studied & then worked as a graphic designer in London. It wasn’t for me so after 3yrs I went into fashion retail. Starting as a sales assistant I worked my way up into management. The clothes were great, and I spent most of my salary buying them but again this wasn’t really me. So 3yrs later I set up my own greeting card business, travelling all over the country selling at craft fairs. I ran my business for 21yrs and now work part time with my husband in his garden fencing company. Doing the accounts no less- go figure?!
I’m a detail person. I love watching films and often am checking out what’s going on in the background and what the extras are doing.
I love exhibitions at the V&A and My favourites were the Dior and Chanel. So stunningly beautiful. I took friends to the latter 7 times. When I went to see Naomi, both times I did the interactive catwalk. I remember thinking- I’m never going to walk on a catwalk, so this is my opportunity. I loved it!!
The baby of five, I never got to say much. Now you can’t stop me! If I’m in a queue, I’ll chat. I’m a Christian and my faith is everything. Fun loving and passionate about what I do. If you’re going to do something, do it right and do it well. I’ve always been into healthy eating & fitness but still love baking. I enjoy swimming, cycling, Pilates & HITT but barre is my favourite, as I would have loved to have done Ballet as a child. I’ve done a triathlon and run 2 marathons and have cycled London – Paris which is by far my greatest achievement. Hubby & I raised over £5000 for charity.
I love where I live in Sussex and regularly pop up to London for the day as it’s only an hour away. I’ve always been into fashion & adore trying on clothes. A great day out is meeting a friend for lunch & shopping or having a relaxing spa day. I love to travel & experience new places, having recently discovered Croatia.
I enjoy reading & I’m currently writing my autobiography (as I have had quite a fascinating childhood) and now, it looks like this is going to be my next chapter!
