My Story
Australian born with a true connection and love of the land, my roots are firmly planted here. I spent many of my formative years living in London, which I also now call home.
With 30 years of industry experience, 16 of those years at Soho House, I have worked in Australia, Europe the Uk and US. My love of the industry stems from my own skin journey which started in my early teens. I earned my stripes as a beauty therapist in Melbourne, to then become a celebrity waxer in London launching 4 treatment rooms at Heidi Klein in Notting Hill. To then manage senior teams and open spas for Soho House across the world.
As the former Global Head of Spas for Soho House, I am an expert operator, leader and consultant with many successful openings to my credit. My first opening, The Walled Garden Cowshed Spa at Babington House won Spa of the Year 2009, at the Tatler Spa Guide Awards held at The Dorchester London.
