Born in Coventry, I spent my early years in the Turks & Caicos Islands and Jamaica before returning to the UK in 1980, settling in London in 1987.

Following further education I began my professional career working with H&S Aviation, an aircraft engine maintenance contract company, organising travel arrangements and business diaries for the Directors.

I then moved to the Geological Society organising events and corporate hospitality within the Petroleum Industry before moving to Remar Shipping in 1992 as Personal Assistant to the Company Director.

In 1994, I moved to a leading Executive Search company, as Personal Assistant to Consultants, Unit Heads and eventually Managing Partners, before moving away from London with my family in 2006 and subsequently setting up my own remote executive assistance business.

A good deal of my work has been in executive search and recruitment, often working in direct liaison with prospective clients and candidates at a senior level, requiring watertight confidentiality and discretion.

I also handle diary management (both personal and business) for executive and non-executive directors, senior consultants and managing partners as well as corporate hospitality planning and organising everything from invitations and travel through to wine list selection, with excellent contacts in the corporate hospitality circuit.

I am comfortable and confident liaising and developing successful long term working relationships with business leaders at the highest levels as well as their supporting staff and have numerous references available from equivalent sources.

In this very private and remote context, confidentiality is more readily assured and my commitment to clients will reflect directly in the success of the business: in short, I can be a ‘secure vault’ in your team.

I live with my husband and two children in Hoylake, Wirral. My husband runs a Communications Consultancy in the not-for-profit sector working with national and international charities and educational organisations.

I am a professionally trained singer and in my spare time have performed solo works in prime venues in the UK (Queen Elizabeth Hall, Barbican, various Cathedrals) and in France (Notre Dame and Chartres Cathedrals) among many others.
