My background spans 41 years of working in Finance, HR, Health Management and latterly part of a health research group at Oxford University. With 2 children and a husband who served for 30 years in the Royal Navy, I have had to balance my working life with family needs so we have had to be resilient and adaptable, and have learned to move house often (far too often!) and integrate quickly into new environments.

Whilst living in the Portsmouth area I was an elected Parent Governor in 2000 at the Church of England Primary School the children attended and became a Foundation Governor in 2013 at another Portsmouth Primary School. I was also part of a small team running the Portsmouth Cathedral Youth Club whilst our children were at the age for attending.

The education environment offered to our children is critical in defining their future aspirations. I have a real interest in doing what I can to support local schools and as a member of the Windsor Great Park residential community, aim to do that by contributing as a school governor at The Royal School.
