Hello.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time on my mountain bike around the Chiltern Hills. Although not known for the rough terrain, I enjoy getting off the beaten track and find it a great way to unwind from the hustle and bustle of London! Having grown up in Leicestershire I also spend much of my time visiting friends and family in the Midlands.

As an aerial surveyor in a past life I caught the travel bug and have always been interested in exploring new places. When possible, my partner and I always try to visit new countries and enjoy challenging ourselves with new hikes. As part of our travels I have always enjoyed carrying a camera to try and capture some of the landscapes we visit. This enthusiasm for photography often rubs off into my line of work, as I am always looking for new ways to capture, visualise and explore the information we collect!
