Biography

After completing a BSc in European Business with French at Nottingham Trent University, I have worked in the marketing and market research industry for over 15 years (7 of which in Hamburg, Germany), bringing extensive experience, and language skills (fluent in French and German) to my clients.    I am now following my passion for geosciences and, having completed a Diploma and BSc in Geoscience with the Open University, I am extending my studies to a Ph.D in Earth Science at Keele University, studying subsidence as a result of salt and brine extraction in Cheshire.
