I grew up in Portsmouth and settled in Southsea in 2014 after spending time away at university and then living and working in London for a decade. Our daughter currently attends Brambles and she loves it and has made so much progress. Being a primary school teacher myself, I am keen to support the school as much as I can so I was pleased to become a parent governor in 2022. I am passionate about education and believe that positive experiences in early years are vital to laying the foundations for success in education and in life.
I was born in Portsmouth and have lived in the city all my life. I work for a neighbouring local authority as the lead for litigation and insurance. I have previously been a governor of Goldsmith Infant School for some 8 years, joining when my daughter was 6 (now 18!). Having taken a few years break as a governor I am pleased to join the governors of Bramble. I am a firm believer that all children should have the benefit of an enjoyable and supportive learning experience.
