My passion for managing projects and events is something that has evolved over many years, through my experiences in a wide variety of industries and roles. 

My early career was spent working in the family print business in Yorkshire. Not only did this teach me everything I needed to know about attention to detail and cost-efficiency, but it also embedded priceless knowledge of how to run a successful business.

Stepping into the role of police wife, I followed my husband’s career from rank-and-file officer through to Chief Constable, relocating across two counties to Warwickshire. This role afforded me access to an exciting range of events, including military functions, civic ceremonies and Royal garden parties. Attending occasions such as these dramatically broadened my horizons, and also gave me the confidence to relate to people from all walks of life. 

I later moved from printing into marketing, specialising in travel and tourism for the first few years before branching out into other sectors.

By this time, it was clear how much I enjoyed the whole process of listening … understanding my clients’ ideas … and turning them into tangible offerings, be that products, print campaigns or events.

After a life-changing diagnosis in 2008, I decided to set up JUMP Consultancy. Having my own business not only gave me the scope to draw on all my skills and experiences but also allowed me the flexibility to pursue my passion for live events while also receiving the treatment I needed.

Surmounting such a life challenge has given me a resilience, tenacity and positive approach that serve me very well in my business. I simply don’t “sweat the small stuff”, and this helps take the pain and stress out of event planning for my clients.

I look forward to working with you!
