She grew up in Glasgow and gained an honours degree in Economics at Glasgow Univeristy, before going to Seville to gain her certificate in 'Teaching English as a Foreign Language' (TEFL) Soon after that, she moved to Bolivia, where she lived for 9 years, speaking Spanish every day, while working with children and families in a local community project that supported families through education, health, sports, and community work.
On her return to the UK in 2011, she spent 7 years working with Glasgow Women's Aid, supporting children and young people who had experienced domestic abuse, and volunteering at the Glasgow City Mission, working with women who experienced homelessness, addiction, isolation, and mental health difficulties. In 2017, she started teaching Spanish to children (age 0-11) with La Jolie Ronde and she is currently teaching around 200 children a week in after-school and weekend clubs. In 2018 she added adult classes to her timetable, and she currently teaches Beginners, Improvers, Intermediate and Advanced classes.
