Summary

Passionate professional with end-to-end project experience. Talent to resolve issues quickly and collaborate with all departments to meet project milestones. Confident, with excellent interpersonal skills for productive client and staff communications.


A keen cyclist and active travel advocate, I have been cycling in London for many years and have always been passionate about encouraging more cycling in the capital. I am a member of London Cycling Campaign and attend Islington meetings at the town hall.


Although my background is in TV, I would love to do a job like this and believe I have all the skills necessary to carry it out to a high degree. I have lots of energy and love taking on new challenges.
