Overview:

​

After 14 years working for the Leicester city council as a lifeguard (14 years) / swimming teacher (12 years) and aerobics instructor (4 years), I decided I needed a change. So I went to college, retook GCSE's, completed an Access to higher education course and soon enough, found myself at DeMontfort University studying Creative Writing and English. It has been a long old journey and not without its up's and downs. 

​

Tip of the moment.

If you ever find yourself feeling stressed or trapped, I have learnt that surrounding yourself with plants is the key to a happy mind.

​

In the last 14 years I never believed that I could be where I am today. If completing this journey has taught me anything, its that I never know what I can achieve until I put my mind to it and give it a go. Before every step I took I found myself saying:

"I cant do that, there's no way I will be able to do that"

I've learnt that its okay to say that so long as you move past it and push on, which I did and I always succeeded. 

I am so proud of myself for what I have achieved and I intend to put my new skills and life lessons to great use in the future.
