What makes you excited about the Tees Valley?

What doesn't! It’s a fab place to be living and enjoying events. There's so much on offer, something for everyone!! It's so beautiful, scenic and full of natural beauty! You just need to look to see!

What makes you the ideal person to be the Face of Tees Valley?

I am very bubbly and enthusiastic, especially enthusiastic about the Tees Valley! I feel so passionate about what we have here and even more so about getting people to see and realise what is right here on our doorstep! I am not one for sitting in and watching TV, there’s a whole amazing active and adventurous life out there and you just got to go grab it! I work 3 days per week but even then I will come home at 6pm and take my boy out on a big bike ride, the cycle paths are great!

How do you normally spend your weekends?

Well I would usually bike ride, beach and park it, and visit local places and attractions. I like to go out for the day! I look out for events in the paper mid week and put them in my calendar, sometimes I have tonnes to choose from!
