I was working as an accountant in London, when my first child, Jemma was born. It quickly got to the stage where she was in bed when I was leaving for work and back in bed by the time I returned. This meant that I had no choice but to be a weekend dad, and I was studying at the weekends! Something needed to change and I started to look at different ways to earn a living. In 1994 I was introduced to Forever Living Products and I immediately saw how it could be life-changing. What I saw was a vehicle to take me from where I was to where I wanted to be and I was captivated. Forever has allowed me the freedom of choice. I have been a present parent for the whole of my two children's childhoods, I was able to attend every school event and was always available during the school holidays. Time is something we can never get back and is invaluable. I'm extremely proud to hold the position of Diamond Manager; there are two Diamond Managers in the UK and just a handful around the world. I have worked with some incredible people over the years and love to work with people who are willing, coachable and hungry to improve their circumstances.
