What makes your business special?
I have always have had flair for design, and working with my father in the greetings card industry gave me good insight. I find the important part of my work is to listen to clients’ requirements. Knowing and understanding what they want makes my job easier to put their project together so that they have a scheme that fits in with their lifestyle and budget.

Likes and Dislikes:
I love to cook, and invent recipes, also enjoy needlepoint when I have time and read a good novel. Dislike bad language, crazy drivers here in Spain and bad manners.


Top business tips:

•Listen and learn, each day you learn something new and add to your knowledge.
•Be organized, and have a positive attitude to everything you do.
•Be happy – if you are happy then you radiate it to all the people you meet.


Why you love living in Spain:
The weather, the people the language the food.
