Background

As Executive Assistant, I work to support the Executive Director with scheduling, planning and delivery of their role.  I also work closely with the wider EDO team supporting them while also handling the general day-to-day running of the EDO.  Prior to joining CCI in February 2023, I had taken an extended career break to be a stay-at-home parent to my 2 children.

Before children, I worked as a corporate EA for 13 years in an array of sectors across central London ranging from an aristocratic interior designer to a management consultancy and a property investment fund management company. 

Despite my non-conservation background, I have always been hugely interested in the natural world, particularly birds, and love nothing better than long walks in and around the bird reserves of Cambridgeshire and Norfolk in my spare time.
