If you weren’t in recruitment, what would you be doing?

I would likely have pursued a career in the police – I find it super interesting & like the idea that no two days would be the same (and because I’m nosy)


What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Spending quality time with my Family, having a spicy margarita(s) with friends, dog walks with my little Frenchie Pablo, and keeping fit in the gym/outdoors!


What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

'Listen more than you speak.'
