Originally from England, I am a dual national of the UK and US, with my father serving in the US military. I spent a lot of my childhood immersed in the American culture on base and always had a desire to live in America. I have always been a very sporty person, whether it be participating or spectating, so it was only natural that I fell into teaching physical education in England. After teaching in England for 2 years, Miss Varone (2/3 facilitator) and I decided to go traveling for 6 months and visit 16 countries. It was during this time we applied for positions in various countries and coincidently found ourselves interviewing for positions with iLEAD. My passions outside of sports are music and DJing. I have DJ’ed in several big clubs around the UK and performed with a few well-known artists. Along with music, I love to dance — specifically street dance — and have competed in the UK street dance championships, reaching the finals on two occasions. If I’m not spending time on my hobbies, I love nothing more than to relax and socialize with family and friends.
