A varied career background
has enabled me to develop a considerable set of skills.
Writing Online
In September 2008 I decided I wanted to start working towards my lifelong dream of becoming a full time writer. I’ve now been working online for just over a year, writing, blogging and creating websites – all around a full time job and being elected chairperson for a local charity. I’ve now given up my day job and I’m writing full time simply because I love it.
Designing & Delivering Training
For the last 7 years I have been writing and delivering training course materials on a wide range of topics and to a diverse mix of people on a self employed basis. Areas I’ve trained others on include: project management, leadership, MS Word, Excel, Outlook Express, policies & procedures, health & safety, governance, child protection, managing depression, creative thinking, self confidence, self esteem, equal opportunities, diversity, self awareness, health topics and volunteering.
Charity Management
I have been involved with local charities for many years being both employed by them as well as managing them. This work has given me the opportunity to develop an amazing range of skills from co-ordination, organisation, fundraising, staff management, bid writing, PR, marketing, creating publicity, finance management and employment issues to setting up a cafe, facilitating user forums, designing and delivering training, setting up a youth venue, excellent computer and administration skills and creating websites.
Support & Counselling
I am a trained psychodynamic counsellor and so much of my career has been around supporting individuals and groups to overcome a variety of personal obstacles including obsessions, mental health problems, phobias, domestic violence and sexual abuse.
