Favourite Scripture: Isaiah 61 - “The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners...”

One thing most people don't know about me: I once sang with Vera Lynn and I used to be in a girl band! (There's two!)

​

People who inspire me: Jim Elliot, Hudson Taylor and anyone who passionately lives their life full out for Jesus!

​

What makes me laugh: Sarcasm, banter, and winding people up! And of course, every episode of Friends (and the IT crowd!)

I work for Tenerife Family Church full-time as The Living Room Pastor, Influencers Founder and Co-ordinator and Worship Leader; I originally moved to Tenerife 11 years ago after spending a week on a short-term mission team! I am passionate about making church relevant to the unchurched, specifically the 18-30s and empowering people to fearlessly share their faith with others in their local communities. This passion is what led me to establish Influencers (a leadership and evangelism training school). I met my partner Adam when he came over on a short-term mission team and I'm amazed and excited by what He wants to do through us as a couple. If you can't find me working away on some new project, or hanging out with people from the Las Americas community, I'm probably out having coffee with friends or binge-watching box sets on Netflix with lots of chocolate!
