Biography
I’m 5’9”, fit, and full of energy for life. I’m an interior designer based in Glasgow’s vibrant West End, where I set up my business 23 years ago and haven’t looked back since. I’m creative to my core—whether it’s through design, painting, or the constant journey of self-improvement.
I’ve raised three amazing daughters who are now thriving adults, and now it’s time for a bit more me time. I have a flexible lifestyle thanks to being self-employed, which leaves room for spontaneous adventures, learning new skills, or just enjoying good conversation and a glass of wine with friends.
I ride a sports motorbike (yes, I have the full license!) and I’m equally happy behind the wheel of a car, on a horse, or diving into water. I’m a strong swimmer, a confident rider, and very comfortable around animals.
Life’s too short to sit still. I love to travel and want to explore more of the world—its culture, food, landscapes, and people. I’ve recently developed an interest in TV and film, and I’m always up for trying something new. I’m solutions-driven by nature, in both business and life, and I believe that with the right mindset, anything is possible.
