I live in Bristol at the moment but I’m normally from Reading where I live with my family and my pet cat Tizzy. As I’ve been missing my cat recently, I’ve decided to hatch some sea monkeys! I enjoy playing netball, watching TV and reading.

Unfortunately due to coronavirus I haven’t been able to go into the office, but at the moment I am working from home on my computer.
