This is my second stint at TGS, so it’s something of a homecoming! My grounding was in state schools in the UK, where I was an English teacher, and I’ve tried to apply those early lessons wherever life has taken me since.

My first experience living away from the UK was in the British Virgin Islands, and I have so many great memories of life and the people there.
Right now, I’d say home to my family – it’s been a long time.
