I have been working at Kingston Vets for over 12 years now. My first role was as a full-time receptionist at the Park Street surgery. Previously I had worked in other administration environments but soon realised that a being Veterinary Receptionist was a whole new challenge, which I quickly grew to love learning something new every day.

I enjoyed the day to day contact with customers, face to face and over the telephone and the busy hustle and bustle of the veterinary hospital environment. After leaving to have my little girl, 9 years ago I returned in a part-time position as Insurance Administrator working in the admin office at Park Street.  Although a very different type of role, I enjoy the challenge of problem solving and still have a good amount of customer contact, assisting clients with their insurance claims and accounts queries, which keeps me on my toes.

I work with a lovely supportive team in the office and we all get along really well and have become friends as well as colleagues. Outside of work most of my time is spent with my family, my husband and my two children. We enjoy family holidays, day trips and regular visits to the cinema usually to see the latest Disney/Pixar film. We are also big rugby league fans and Hull F.C season pass holders.  We attend all home games at the KC stadium with my parents and as many away games as we can get to.
