I was born in Yorkshire and grew up on the South West coast in Cornwall. I loved having the sea and beautiful landscape as a common backdrop to much of family life and activities. I went to University in Oxford where I trained to be an Occupational Therapist. I was living and working in Oxfordshire when I met Kyle. We got married in 2003 and now enjoy a busy home with 2 children.

I now work part-time at a hospital in Oxford, specialising in the rehabilitation of adults following a brain injury. I use my remaining time to help out with our local church, meeting with teenagers on a regular basis and participating in Reign community to pray, evaluate, strategise and plan.
