I grew up in Old Stratford and have been a Deanshanger resident for the last 11 years. Attending secondary school and having family members living here gave me strong ties to the village, which meant we settled in Deanshanger.

Last year I joined the Good Neighbours working party and have enjoyed being involved in the community engagement events and fundraising.

I'm keen to help improve the village for the benefit of the community, with particular focus on youth engagement and assisting in enhancing the facilities for young families. Our daughter Emily was born during Covid lockdown and so we heavily relied on the amenities available within the village.

Professionally, I'm the Managing Director of a training organisation that provide management and leadership training to the NHS. Within the organisation we strive for continuous improvement and always look to innovative new ideas, I hope to bring that focus to the Deanshanger Parish Council.
