I am a fellow of the Charted Institute of Legal Executives with an MSc in Corporate Governance. I started working in housing for a local authority in the early 2000s before moving to a housing association in 2009, working in legal and governance.
I wanted to become a Board member because it is an opportunity to give something back. I particularly liked Horton Housing because of the services they provide and because they are quite different to what I have experienced in my job.
There is an element of career development as to why I wanted to join the Board, but it is more about wanting to make a difference and to develop my knowledge on the services that are provided by Horton Housing and Chartford Housing.
With a keen eye for detail and a critical thinking approach, I hope to be able to propose solutions to try and achieve positive outcomes for the Board.
