When did you join iHasco?
I joined at the end of August 2018.
What do you do there?
I work as the Head of Production. I work on putting together schedules and projects for our creative team who create our beautiful courses for you all. I'm also one of iHasco's Mental Health First Aiders.
What did you want to do when you were at school?
I wanted to be a hairdresser for ages which mainly came from me sneaking around the house and trying to cut my own hair!
Tell us something we don’t know about you…
I LOVE baking. Cakes, cookies, cupcakes, cheesecakes – the lot. You name an occasion and I will try and bake something for it.
Where in the world would you most like to go?
I'd like to go to New Zealand again as I have family out there. But also South America. I have friends who have gone travelling there and raved about it.
What do you get up to when you’re not at iHasco?
I spend a lot of my time with family and friends, plus a bit of baking in between.
What’s your favourite food?
Anything sweet! But for a favourite meal… Roast Dinner every time.
Favourite book or movie?
Grease. I would make my brother and my dad sit through it most weekends as a child which I can guarantee they wouldn’t have enjoyed… Blues Brothers is a close second.
