Profile

I studied at the College of Food at University College Birmingham, gaining my diploma in Hotel management and City and Guilds chef qualifications before working in London for ten years as operations manager for a large pub chain. 

I have a passion for cooking and a will for people to succeed in a work environment. I have worked on the College of Food apprenticeship team for over 4 years and last year I mentored the National Hospitality Apprentice of The Year.

I am currently the co-ordinator for all the College of Food apprenticeships including hospitality and professional cookery. I am also a mentor on the prestigious Royal Academy of Culinary Arts apprenticeships.
