I am a busy business woman, a unique individual (aren’t we all?), a partner, mum, nan, dog walker and a taxi! I spend far too much time on my laptop, don’t understand how it works, yell when it doesn’t work yet still come back to it because I enjoy what can be achieved by using it. I love it all (most of the time) and I love my work too.
