Experienced operating and leading strategy and teams at a Global Level across FMCG, Heritage/Museums and Fashion industries. I have been working professionally in these industries for over 22 years.

Currently specialising in Medical/Dermatological Skincare, Professional Aesthetic Skincare and Wellness (Phytotherapy & Aromatherapy) brands within of one of the fastest growing skincare divisions in the world. I enjoy working across multiple brands and disciplines and collaborating on first to market innovations.

I am incredibly passionate about sustainability in VM (fully circular substrate development and implementation), inclusivity and equality though actively sourcing via multiple talent pools (in VM), industrial apprenticeships, Access to Work schemes and mentoring. I value actions which can instigate change - over constant discussion and I believe that developing people so the they are not afraid to f**k-up will bring the most innovative, grounded, happiest and solution focused teams.

When not working, I am am happiest when learning something new, travelling and being creative. I enjoy millinery, tailoring, art, film, theatre, floristry, learning languages, yoga, getting lost and coffee.
