Progression Coach, Hastings and Bexhill

I joined Villiers Park in November 2024 as a Progression Coach for Hastings and Bexhill. As an alum of the programme myself, I am very excited to contribute to an organisation which helped me so much as a young person. 

 

Previously I studied Criminology at the University of Bristol, focusing on gendered violence and youth justice, and I spent the summer volunteering in Poland and Italy as an English as a Foreign Language tutor for young learners. 

 

Outside of work, I am a keen reader, animal enthusiast and foodie. I love to cook and run a (very small) food blog.
