Having graduated in both music and medicine at Manchester University, I then completed my postgraduate medical training in Manchester and Liverpool.
I first worked at The Countess of Chester during my specialist training, having previously worked as Medical Director at Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Wye Valley NHS Trust and as Associate Medical Director at Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. I was a consultant in anaesthesia and intensive care medicine at Mid Cheshire NHS Foundation Trust and at the Liverpool heart and Chest NHS Foundation Trust.
I joined The Countess of Countess in August, 2018 as Medical Director before becoming Acting Chief Executive in October 2018 and then the substantive Chief Executive in April 2019.
I have lived with my husband and three children in Mid Cheshire for 28 years.
