I was born in Scotland in 1993 and moved here in 1995 and have lived in Shepway since I was two.

I gained GCSEs and an NVQ.

I have worked in hospitality since I was 16, working front of house in pubs restaurants and hotels, taking a break since having my second child.

I have three children, 9 and under, two of which are autistic. One attends a mainstream with SRP provision and one a specialist school.

I have experience with dealing with the diagnosis route alongside EHCP application.

I am on Climate and Environment, Community Services and Grants Committees at the Town Council.

I am committed to helping the youth and SEN of our community especially.
