I spent 10 years as a Primary School teacher, progressing to a senior management role before taking maternity leave. When my daughter was nine months old, I was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia and it drastically changed my life. After discovering an effective chemotherapy treatment, I began sharing my journey on social media, which ignited my interest in content creation. This eventually led to a role managing social media platforms for various companies and developing my own.In addition to this job, I founded a non-profit organisation called Cancer in Common, where I planned and organized free events for people living with cancer (or in remission). In February 2024, the organisation became a registered charity, and I now work alongside a fantastic group of individuals, hosting events nationwide.
