About

I am currently working at Atom Bank as a Lending Specialist. It is a job I very much enjoy as nothing satisfies me more than a job well done and opportunity to help others. I have spent 6 fulfilling years there and think I am ready for a new challenge. I have a full UK driving license with no points. I am also a regular runner in my spare time and completing running events such as the Great North Run.
