1) What's something about you that most people at Lady Barn might not know but would find interesting or surprising?

I did an English and History degree and had no idea that I would end up working in Finance for twenty years!

2) If you could switch roles with a pupil for a day, what class or subject would you choose, and why?

I would choose History as this was always my favourite subject. I love reading History books and exploring historical sites. I especially love learning about anything to do with WW2.

3) If you could have any superpower for a day, what would it be, and how would you use it at Lady Barn?

I would want to time travel. I would love to go back into the past and forward into the future. I am fascinated with Lady Barn's history and would love to report back on what life was like when the school opened. I would also love to tell staff and pupils what will happen in Lady Barn's future!

4) Can you tell us about a special talent or hobby you have outside of your role at Lady Barn that brings you joy?

I really enjoy playing tennis. I used to play as a child and started up again a year ago. I absolutely love it and play with a brilliant group of women every week.
