Since 2009, I’ve been working as a fundraising specialist in numerous senior management roles, supporting the work of scientists, conservationists, historians, artists, educators and engineers, in high-profile visitor-facing charities including Chester Zoo, Storyhouse Chester and the Science Museum Group. My roles have always focussed on strategic planning, developing long-standing and transformational relationships, and nurturing a team culture of innovation, experimentation and collaboration.

I thrive on helping others see how they can make a difference towards charities achieving their mission, vision and ambition, and as a previous charity chair, I have a solid understanding of charitable governance.
