I'd like to introduce myself but we've probably spoken already. I'm the receptionist here at Designate, answering phones, meeting, greeting and with a bit of admin thrown in too.

Before I joined, I'd had a variety of jobs – booker in a model agency, event co-ordinator at a corporate entertainment company and diary manager at a dental practice alongside helping to run my husband’s colour management consulting business. I was also a hand model for 20 years – my main skill being the ability to keep still. A talent I still have. You can see some my finest work on the front cover of Jilly Cooper's Polo.

Outside of work, I am an adrenaline junkie & enjoy mountain biking, rock climbing & all dangerous sports. Not really. I read, cook, watch, eat & drink all things marvellous along with my husband & ginger tom.
