Get To Know Me
Why Right To Play?
Right To Play is an organisation that continually inspires me. Our cause and the programmes we run change young lives in areas of real need and I feel fortunate to work with a fantastic team both here in the UK and around the world.
Where do you get your inspiration from?
I work at a place where I am continually inspired by stories from our programmes, the passion of our supporters, the achievements of our Athlete Ambassadors and the lengths my colleagues go to do what we can to change the world, but beyond that Eastenders is pretty powerful.
Best piece of advice you've ever been given?
Don’t ever put yourself down, that’s what other people are there for.
Best sporting moment?
Scoring at Stamford Bridge.
If you had an open plane ticket, where would you go?
I’ve never wanted to go to Australia, but one of my best friends is getting married there in December 2012 so I have to go, but it is expensive. This is a thinly veiled attempt for a senior executive at Qantas to get in touch and help me out.
