About me

My story

My career began in office-based roles within banking and utilities, giving me first-hand experience of workplace demands and challenges.

I later qualified in massage and sports injury therapy, combining my understanding of office work with a passion for helping people manage pain and improve their physical wellbeing.

While running my corporate wellness massage business, I recognised that effective support requires more than addressing physical symptoms. Understanding how the working environment contributes to discomfort, strain and injury is equally important.

This led me to train in Display Screen Equipment (DSE) ergonomics more than 10 years ago. Since then, I have continued developing my expertise through ongoing professional development and up-to-date knowledge of workplace and dynamic ergonomics.

I subsequently spent four and a half years in Occupational Health, advising and supporting people with a wide range of physical conditions and complex complaints. I carried out DSE assessments remotely and face to face, helping individuals and organisations reduce risk, improve comfort and support healthier working practices.

Three years ago, I expanded my expertise by training in Vehicle Driver Ergonomics. I now support and train fellow clinicians in DSE and vehicle assessments, helping them develop confidence, consistency and practical skills.

I also develop and deliver client webinars on employee wellbeing, DSE risks and effective workstation set-up, providing accessible guidance to help organisations create healthier, more comfortable working environments.
