ABOUT ME
I am an interesting mix of accounting precision and well organised administrative capabilities pared with an artist’s soul. Although I have been working in a corporate setting for many years, and I daily have to work with figures, budgets and sales forecasts, I enjoy the personal interaction more. Because of my fast paced working environment, in my free time I enjoy painting, and writing and love performance arts. I was lucky enough to meet my husband (a retired ballet dancer) 6 years ago and together we enjoy the art scene. I am currently aiming to obtain a certification in Art Therapy, as emotional wellness is a passion of mine.
