About

Working consistently from the age of 13 has certainly give me a very strong work ethic, and a drive to always give my best in any position that I work in. From 18 the drive was out of a desire to travel, which I have done extensively in my life, having lived and worked in 4 other countries outside of the UK, from Europe to Asia. I think my experiences have given me a unique ability to really adapt myself into any work and social environment.

From a relatively young age I have regularly taken on the management role mantel, which in itself was a learning curve, as there is often a stigma and snap-judgement made about younger people in managerial positions. This only pushed me to work harder, prove myself and constantly invent creative ways to improve, adapt and cultivate more knowledge. A personal goal of mine has always been to become my own boss and to find something that I'm passionate about and turn it into a business of my own with full creative freedom.

I can now confidently say that I have done that, and the world is my clam, my oyster, my golden road and every other cliche phrase I can think of! It can only improve from here
