I have two daughters attending Churchfields Junior School and I am keen to use my skills to support young people in my community and to better understand and support my daughter’s education. I am looking forward to making contributions as a parent governor and seek the best for parents and pupils of the school.

I have been a senior manager in the arts/charitable sector for 20 years with responsibility for finance, HR, operations and health & safety. I have managed an international festival and commercial and non-commercial theatres as General Manager and am currently Director of Finance & Operations for a creative arts charity.

I declare, I or my relatives have no pecuniary or business interests.
