I’m CEO and National Treasurer at IA (Ileostomy and Internal Pouch Association), a charity dedicated to supporting people living with an ileostomy or internal pouch, their families, friends and carers.I’m a Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, with the first 12 years of my career spent in the financial services sector, working within banking and investment management firms in the City of London. Subsequent to that, I moved into the professional education sector where I spent a number of years working for a leading training company in both trainer and manager/director capacities, before then establishing FTP Development. In 2012 I moved into the charity sector where I still am now. I’m also the author of ‘First Time Pass’ (Fireworks Press), a comprehensive guide to achieving professional level exam success.
