About me...

I am married to an amazing man called Dave, have 3 children and 6 grandchildren, 4 girls and 2 boys I have been writing all my life, cooking since I was about 9, creating recipes since I was about 12 and studying nutrition since my late teens which has led to studying the Plant Based Nutrition Certificate course and graduating in March 2017.
Currently I am a Director with a second stage Women's Shelter. Previously, I was a Pastor,  a Social Worker,  a Nurse and have worked in many other fields such as management, retail, and as a receptionist. I have lead counselling and personal development workshops, spiritual retreats and taught classes on a wide variety of subjects.
I am a passionate person who loves people, learning and creativity in arts and crafts.
I completed a Master of Divinity with Ambrose Seminary in 2015. I am also trained as a Spiritual Director through FCJ, (Faithful Companions of Jesus). My favourite undergrad courses were "Brain, Biology & Behaviour" and psychology,  and as a teenager my most hated course was cookery because I thought I could cook better than the teacher, thanks to my Grandma who was a pastry cook!
