Interests

Completed my first full marathon in 2021, this was a huge achievement for me personally. Managing the training plan, working full time, travelling for work along with family commitments and COVID restrictions and injury. It is one of the more hilliest events and is not the normal 42.2k but 44k.

To be able to set a goal and achieve it with perseverance and determination tells a lot about a person.

Additional Information

I am a dedicated employee and strive to succeed. Over the many years in the freight industry I have had to step out of my comfort zone and take on new roles, stand up and present to peers and customers.

I have successfully managed a team of 15 Key Account managers for the past 4 years who have been able to increase their client portfolio GP year on year.
