The Heavens Valley is the first thing I see out the window each morning and I feel extremely lucky to be part of a community that has done so much to protect it. I’ve spent countless hours running up, down and around its various trails (I hold a local record for running from top to bottom) and can sometimes even convince the dog to walk up it.

I’ve already been volunteering with the Heavens team to help ensure office systems run smoothly and I have 20 years experience managing teams, data, and processes, specifically around technology security and safety. 

When I’m not running down hills or herding computers I spend a lot of time managing my own very small woodland (overgrown garden) at home. I’m keen to continue volunteering both my professional skills and my enthusiasm for natural management and would love to do so as a Director, supporting the team and the valley for the long term.
