Senior Planner
I graduated from the University of Liverpool with a distinction in Civic Design (Planning) in 2007.
I have 17 years experience working in the Development Management team as Planning Officer at West Lancashire Borough Council, where I was able to gain a wide range of knowledge in all aspects of the planning system including residential, retail, commercial and agricultural development.

Outside of work, I enjoy travelling with my family and I have recently found a love for holidaying in the UK where my sons passion for animals always seems to take us to the nearest local farm!
