About
I am a well organised and highly motivated individual with almost twenty years sales experience exceeding ambitious targets in primary and secondary care. Since being made redundant I used my interpersonal skills to set up a successful domiciliary business. In 2019 my personal circumstances changed and I began working with children with Special Educational Needs.
Whilst I enjoy this and have learnt many new skills, my passion is selling. I have experience in a number of areas including Theatres, Endoscopy and ICU.
