Career break

I took a planned career break from July 2017 to March 2025 to raise my two boys. My husband works away from home most of the time, and I felt they needed the stability and security of a stay at home parent (they are both neurodiverse). However, my youngest is starting school in September, so now it's time for me to invest in myself and my family in a new and exciting way!
