About

I’m a housing professional with several years of experience in allocations, property management, and team leadership within local government. I’ve worked closely with both applicants and internal teams to make sure housing is allocated fairly, efficiently, and in line with council policy.

Alongside managing day-to-day housing operations, I’ve also been responsible for overseeing property standards, reducing void turnaround times, and making sure properties are ready to let. I’m comfortable working with budgets, monitoring spend, and finding ways to deliver good value without cutting corners.

I enjoy leading teams and supporting staff to grow, while keeping services running smoothly. I believe in being approachable, fair, and focused on solutions—especially when working with vulnerable residents or in high-pressure situations. I’m proud to contribute to services that make a real difference in people’s lives.
