| How did you get to where you are now? | I started working in a engineering plant part time until I left school. I then started working with two domestic electricians before starting work at LifeScan. |
| What motivates you? | I enjoy a good challenge and working under pressure. |
| Any other info? E.g. activities you have done with schools, what you can offer schools etc. | Because I am still a teenager myself I feel that I can engage and interact with school aged people effectivley. |
