Description

Myself and my Husband retired to France ten years ago and we now live in the Tarn et Garonne with our two tiny Yorkshire Terriers. What an exciting journey we have had! We’ve lived in several regions, sampling fabulous food and wine and immersing ourselves fully in the culture and tradition. Husband is an artist and has a Triumph motorcycle, while I love long walks with one of our dogs, Rocky Marciano!!

My career has taken me from financial services and executive support to HR, policing, relationship management, customer experience, consultancy and community engagement. The common thread has always been people.

I have dual nationality, Irish and British and, whilst I love France, I now want to broaden my horizons, meet new people and experience different cultures.

More details about your skills

I am happiest when I am helping, connecting, solving and making things better. I have a lifetime of practical experience and have a ‘can do’ attitude so I can turn my hand to almost anything!

I enjoy meeting people, understanding what makes them tick and finding ways to make life easier — whether that means solving a practical problem, helping someone gain confidence or simply being the person who can be relied upon when something needs sorting.

I enjoy walking, travelling, golf (rusty!), food and wine, entertaining friends and spending time with dogs.

I am also a former FA Referee — an experience that taught me rather a lot about judgement, communication, diplomacy and making decisions when everyone has an opinion!
