Who am I and what can I do for you?
I did a Law and French degree at Nottingham Trent University and as part of this, spent a year in Montpellier studying French Law which was fantastic!  I then went on to do my Legal Practice Course (LPC) in Leeds. After completing this, I decided I wanted to combine my legal knowledge with recruitment and joined Sacco Mann in July 2006.

I specialise in recruitment across the whole of the North East and North Yorkshire region, with the majority of my client base being in Newcastle.  I find jobs for lawyers with varying levels of experience from Newly Qualified Solicitors to Equity Partners. I recruit for leading international and national commercial firms, as well as regional high street practices.

I was born in Doncaster, or Donny! I used to be fluent in French and Russian but now can only just about manage the basics - bonjour!!  I am obsessed with French furniture and anything vintage and girly.  I am a sucker for anything girly, romantic, and / or fattening!

If I wasn't doing what I'm doing now, what alternative career would I choose and why?

Food / hotel critic (although I may forget to do the actual critiquing bit) or interior designer (for clients that love the faux French / romantic look!)

Likes: Food - especially chocolate & cake, strawberry daiquiris! Anything vintage and girly, Cath Kidston and Laura Ashley!!! My bed & bubble baths.  Oh and laughing, I love laughing!

Dislikes: Minimalism, being told what to do, cruelty of any sort, extreme diets, admin & getting up!

Five words that describe me: Excessive, thoughtful, romantic, excitable, indecisive!
