Despite having lived in Essex all my life, and thereby having seen many of the beautiful sights the County has to offer, I was especially taken in by the picturesque beauty in and around Mistley upon a visit in 2021. This prompted me to move to the area soon after. I have since been an active member of the community, meaningfully contributing to enhancing safety in the area through being the Co-ordinator for River Reach NHW (which has the highest membership count within Tendring Council jurisdiction), and having regular engagement with the Police and other relevant authorities.

In addition to my professional full-time employment in security and health and safety, where I regularly oversee matters pertaining to public safety and crowd management (and for which I am screened by MOPAC), I have an extensive portfolio of qualifications, positions of responsibility, and awards which amply demonstrate my experience. Some of these include:

Freeman of the City of London
Fellow of Institute of Advanced motorists Signed Pledge Safer Essex Roads Fellow of the Institute of strategic Risk Management Diploma in Health & Safety Chairman construction transport management Group and review Development and planning Mental Health First Aider Designated safeguarding lead Member of steering group for safety for women and girls

Consequently, I look forward to having the opportunity to utilise my knowledge and experience for the betterment of Mistley.
