What is your idea of a perfect meal?
I don’t think you can beat a Sunday roast.
What is your favourite way to relax?
Exercise! I play in one of the Manx Netball Association’s leagues on a Sunday morning, so I train a couple of nights a week for that. I also do some yoga too. It’s great way to burn off some steam or take my mind off other things.
What is your greatest extravagance?
I’m not really a big spender. My phone is probably the most expensive thing I’ve bought.
Do you have any pets?
I have 3 gold fish.
What is your greatest achievement?
Getting my first teaching job is probably my greatest achievement. It felt like all of my hard work whilst studying for my degree and then my PGCE had paid off.
What is your favourite time of the year?
Autumn. I love wrapping up warm and going for a walk on a cold, blustery day.
What is the first job you ever had?
I got a job in the Crosby Pub as a waitress when I was 14 and worked there on and off until I was 22.
Do you have any irrational fears?
I have a massive phobia of snakes. I can’t even look at a photograph of them.
What is your worst habit?
I’m a bit of an over-thinker and sometimes concentrate too much on the little things.
What is your favourite book?
When I was younger I always had my nose in a book and can remember racing through the Harry Potter series trying to beat the release of the films. I’d say they’re my favourite books because they’re the only books that I’ve read more than once.What is your favourite TV programme?
I don’t think I can pick a favourite. I love Line of Duty when it’s on and was hooked on Bodyguard too. I watched all of the Luther series over the Christmas holidays and I really enjoyed Killing Eve.
What is your favourite band/artist at the moment?
I just listen to whatever’s on the radio in the car. At the moment it seems to always be Lewis Capaldi or Ariana Grande.
What is your favourite part of the Isle of Man?
Bradda Head.
What is the last show/band that you saw live?
I saw Matilda the Musical at the Palace Theatre in Manchester in October. I had wanted to see it for years and it didn’t disappoint.
If time/money were no object, what would be your perfect day?
I’d fly to New York to see some Broadway shows.
Choose three people, dead or alive, to invite to dinner?
Philip Schofield, Holly Willoughby and panto royalty Christopher Biggins.

Cats or dogs?

Quiet night in or night out?
