Tammydee King

I have an outgoing personality combined with a good sense of humour. I can communicate with all age groups. I am very reliable, self-motivated, energetic, and enthusiastic. I am always eager to learn skills and information.

This has been reflected in the training and qualifications gained in my chosen fields. In my spare time, I enjoy learning by taking courses, keeping fit, running, going for walks, caring for rescue hedgehogs and spending time with my family. My children are now older, making me think I need a new challenge and a career change.

It's time for me to do something for me!
