I’m the director of Software Cornwall, an organisation dedicated to helping Cornwall’s software industry succeed.
Im also the mum to two children and I understand the off-side rule!
I have worked across many sectors in Operations roles including HR and Finance and have a lot of experience in overcoming the challenges associated with running small businesses (a jack of all trades type but a master of some!)
Ive always gravitated to the education sector both within private sector organisations and within a college setting and recognise the importance of inspiring and making learning accessible. Something I’m proud to say we do well at Software Cornwall.
Tech is fascinating and there is always so much to learn which is great and being a woman in tech in an organisation impacting positive social change is awesome!
I’m passionate about helping to develop the local tech sector, and creating a vibrant and innovative tech-driven economy in Cornwall.
