What do you enjoy about working at Leisure Time Group?
A few things really 1) the people involved 2) the variety and 3) the amazing outcomes we achieve when running our events - we love what we do and the feedback shows that what we do is pretty awesome!
What was your first job?
I worked in a Bakery helping the bakers - still love baking!
What did you want to be when you grew up?
Really hard to recall - it was such a long time ago, but I remember being inspired by my parents running their own business so I guess I was always heading in that direction!
What is an achievement or special credential you're really proud of?
On a personal level my family, but on a professional level my work family. I am really proud of the company we as a team have built. My parents laid an amazing foundation which has given us clear direction around our work style, our morals and ethics and so I am really proud of our company and its achievements.
What do you do in your spare time?
I don't get a huge amount of it but when I can I like to spend time with family and friends and whenever possible head to the beach! Despite the lack of a beach body, the beach is my happy place - I love being near the coast - no particular beach just any beach.
What are you most grateful for in your life?
My family - they keep me grounded and sane!
