My journey began with a promise, inspired by supporting a loved one with Huntington’s Disease — an experience that sparked my passion for providing care that truly makes a difference.

As a Finance Manager, I love numbers, spreadsheets and making sense of the details that help businesses thrive. 


When I’m not balancing budgets, I’m busy balancing life as a proud mum of two. I love lacing up my running shoes and hitting the pavement for fresh air and a clear mind. Whether it’s in finance, family or fitness, I’m always up for a good challenge and a chance to keep moving forward.
