My career has been quite diverse including Business Management, IT design, Telecommunications and Teaching, but the role that fed my soul was Head of Operations for YMCA Worcestershire working with young people and vulnerable adults.

I love cooking particularly using Cypriot ingredients. I am very close to my family and have recently discovered an interest in refurbishing furniture.
