Born in the 1960s in Bury, Lancashire, England, she was educated at a Secondary Modern School where she excelled in Art, Physics, Mathematics and English Literature. From an early age, creativity and analytical thinking shaped both her academic interests and her future pursuits. She released her first book of poems, Bee Happy, on 31 May 2021.
In 1977, she purchased her first property, refurbished it, and sold it a year later for more than double the purchase price. This marked the beginning of a lifelong passion for property renovation and investment. Over the years, she has bought and refurbished five properties, selling three for more than double their original value, retaining one as her family home and maintaining another as a rental property as a private landlord. Alongside her property ventures, she has designed and crafted bespoke furniture and undertaken landscape gardening projects, combining practicality with artistic flair.
A devoted wife, mother of three and proud grandmother of four, she considers her family to be her greatest blessing and the true measure of her success. Now, in this rewarding chapter of her life, she dedicates her time to illustrating and writing poetry books, bringing together her lifelong love of art and literature in creative expression.
