Q: Why did you join the Back and Body Clinic?

A: I was looking for a complete change of career after being a teacher and a stint in travel.  I looked at the website and profiles of the team and just thought - well they look fun, that’s something I want to be part of!

Q: Favourite food?

A: Thai or generally really spicy.  If I’m crying into my lunch, it’s a good sign!

Q: Scariest thing you've ever done?

A: I went on a paranormal investigation where I sat in an old building all night with a bunch of strangers and equipment - think the Temu version of Ghostbusters.

Q: Most relaxing thing?

A: Quite opposing things:  Sofa, glass of wine, a cracking box set and my Pekingese Cecil by my side. Taking five in my little zen garden, I’m a bit of a Japanophile!  Travelling and exploring somewhere new.  I love a good march through a city.  I don’t take the tube - you see so much more above ground!

Q: One thing to take to a desert Island?

A: A mirror. I’m all about the rescue mission, so I’d use it to signal to overhead aircraft.  Meanwhile, I could get a fire going to BBQ some fish and keep myself warm at night.  Failing that, I’d have another face to talk to once I start to lose it!

Q: Stranded in a lift with?

A: Gyles Brandreth.  Surely the loveliest man on the planet!  You couldn’t possibly be sad or stressed with him around. The jumpers!

Q: Favourite film?

A: Arrghhh that’s tough…I love old films with amazing cinematography and a great score.  So anything directed by David Lean, especially Dr Zhivago.  Apocalypse Now, Rain Man, Pretty Woman, The Guernsey Potato Peel Society…did I say I was indecisive?
