About Me:

I’ve been with Christmas FM for over a decade. I took a year out when our baby Daisy was born 2 weeks before Christmas FM aired! In my day job, I am a postpartum doula and a Nutrition and Lifestyle coach.

I am usually found running after Daisy, dancing with her, doing a spin or Pilates class, walking, cooking/baking or catching up on our favourite TV shows (The Good Place, Strictly, Taskmaster, Finding Joy).  I am happiest hanging out with my husband & Daisy or having coffee and/or food & wine with our families or friends.

Your role at Christmas FM:

Why Christmas FM:

Being part of Christmas FM is such an incredible experience on so many levels! There is the Christmas FM team of AMAZING people who give of their time voluntarily to help others, which is really something special. Connecting with our listeners who tune in year after year and the listeners who are tuning in for the first time gives me such a buzz. I love hearing what our audience are doing when they are listening in and why it is so special to them. The main thing that gets me is hearing about the endless work that goes on in each of the charities we have supported over the years. The people who work and volunteer for these charities give endlessly, year in, year out. A lot of the time, this commitment goes unnoticed but to me, these people are everyday heroes. I really feel so lucky to be able to say I am part of the Christmas FM team.

My Favourite Christmas Song:

Christmas Shoes…………….just kidding! Mariah Carey – All I want for Christmas, Michael Bublé – singing anything! This is too tough…

My Favourite Christmas Food:

All of it!! My sister & brother-in-law’s Christmas dinner is actually ridiculous, I dream about it!

My Favourite Christmas Tradition:

In our house, everyone had to finish breakfast before going in to the tree to see what Santa had brought for us! This will certainly be carried on with Daisy!

Where I’m From:

I’m originally a North-side Dub but moved to the South-side when I was 9. I moved back and forth over the years but I’m a firm South-sider now as I have been here for the past 10 years or so!
