I am responsible for the day-to-day running of the AU, its clubs and also our student societies. I have oversight of both the AU and Society programs and their finances, ensuring they run smoothly and that they meet the H&S requirements. I also work closely with the Sabbatical Officers in a supportive role to help them achieve their manifesto points as well as alongside the Opportunities Lead to deliver on wider events and projects.

I was born in Bangor, so local to the area, however I moved away at the age of 10 and lived in Spain for just over 9 years. During my time abroad I played Basketball professionally for Unicaja Malaga in Liga ACB and until recently basketball has played a major part of my life. I came back to the UK in 2008 and studied at the University of Chester, studying BSc Sports & Exercise Science then MSc Cardiology & Cardiac Rehabilitation. I have worked for University and Students’ Unions for 8+ years at the University of Chester and Wrexham Glyndwr University so have a good level experience in the sector. Nowadays in my spare time, I own and run a pedigree livestock farm out towards Snowdon.
