Biography
I have been employed by Irwin Mitchell since 1999 and qualified as a Legal Executive in 2005.

I was inspired to apply for a role at Irwin Mitchell as I wanted help people, who through no fault of their own, had been injured and have never looked back!
What do you do away from the office?
I love being a Mum to my daughter, Beau and son, Riley and spend most of my spare time watching them dance or play football. I love the outdoors, especially the Lake District, and walking my dog, Murphy. When I have a minute to myself, I like a nice spa day or meal out with my lovely friends!
