About

I'm mum to a human, a dog and a cat and I live in Durham in the North East of the UK.  After a software training career in box office ticketing, I moved into construction and have worked in associated sectors ever since, landing on user experience research and market research when I realised I liked taking in information more than I enjoyed imparting it. I've worked both client-side and agency side and now as a freelance consultant.

I love people, I love understanding why people behave they do and I'm happy to now be working in the job for the endlessly curious.   I'm also a knitter and spend a lot of my spare time making socks for friends and family.
