What is something that most people don’t know about you?

I am an avid gamer. Most evenings after work and working out, you'll find me queuing up my Xbox to play Overwatch or Expedition 33. I'm also a massive Tolkien fan. The Lord of the Rings is my comfort reading!

What keeps you active outside of work?

I teach spin and kettlebell classes at a local studio and am training for my first half marathon in over 20 years. I also enjoy golfing and spend time at the course in summer, the simulator in winter, with my husband and friends. We are a large blended family with six kids and three dogs so most of the rest of my time is spent focusing on all the things that come with parenting.
