About

A variety of commercial roles means a wealth of experience gained across Product and Range Development, Retail, Merchandising, Account Management, Marketing and Compliance in the FMCG sector. After taking a career break when my children were small, I returned to work for local, family run food-based businesses in South Wales, either directly or as an affiliate for Zero2Five Food Industry Centre at Cardiff Metropolitan University. Following 2 years in education I am enjoying being back in a commercial role for Ashbury Global.
