Building stronger communities together

Having spent the last three decades living in Barnet, my life is a colourful mix of history, sports and a deep commitment to the community.

I have an avid interest in history, particularly almshouses, and passion for supporting local charities like The Bull Theatre, where I serve as a Trustee and help foster a love for the arts in our community. I also have a thirst for trivia so I’m often seen creating and hosting quizzes within my area. Living in Barnet allows me to engage with its rich history while connecting with our vibrant community, making every day an opportunity to explore and contribute.

When I'm not immersed in historical pursuits or local charity work, you can find me on the tennis court or supporting my footie team, Southampton FC who can only be topped by my two children, Becca and Michael.

Despite my active workload, I love nothing more than cosying up to my curious cat, Milo, and energetic Lemon Beagle, Jackson, who has his own Instagram page.
