Why do you love working for ActionCOACH?
Since I joined I’ve been introduced to hugely influential and successful people who I’ve taken so much from. I’ve overcome personal demons and felt supported every step of the way. I’ve also cultivated relationships which I’m sure will be a huge part of my life for the long run!

Tell us something interesting about yourself:
I can play 7 musical instruments and also I can do incredible things with a teapot and some bath salts (Ask Julie!)… My Great Uncle (Jack Rowley) is the 4th highest top scorer ever for Manchester United behind Wayne Rooney, Bobby Charlton and Dennis Law.

What are your favourite pastimes?
Performing & watching live music and attending the Theatre of Dreams at the weekend! (should I have put something about my partner here?…)

What are your top three 14 points of culture?
Fun – Because who wants to be anything else?!
Balance – Everything has a balance and finding the right balance for yourself is critical to happiness and success.
Gratitude – Too many of us humans are never appreciative of “our lot” it’s great to strive for more and something that I’d advise everybody to do! However , it’s equally as important to appreciate the things that we already have/have achieved as they are ultimately what made you the person you are today!
