Role & Interests

Please describe your role.
I am the Sales Director. People know me as the gobby one who stands at the front!
 
How long have you been part of the Waterline team?
I have been part of the team for 39 years! I am the longest serving employee and was here on Day 1!

Share a memorable moment from your career that has shaped who you are today?

Years ago I took 75 couples who were our best customers on a luxury Silver Seas cruise around the Mediterranean. 

Unfortunately a storm whipped up in the Bay of Biscay and on the third night out at sea the ship was heaving this way and that and most of them had to take to their rooms with severe seasickness. 

In fact the ship’s doctor was administering injections to the worst affected. You can imagine how I felt thinking I’d killed off our top customers! 

Fortunately the next day the sea was like a millpond and it remained like that for the rest of the time so I was forgiven!

What's your favourite hobby or pastime outside of work?
I love watching my beloved football team Chelsea!


If you could travel anywhere in the world right now, wh
ere would you go and why?
The Italian Lakes because it’s nice and warm and I can eat my bodyweight in pasta and fish!


If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Oh I love Bombay mix or any Indian food in general!

Share a fun fact about yourself that most people don't know.
I am pretty dull to be honest with you but I do run 5k everyday!
