About
I began training to be a Palantypist in Aug 1990 straight after finishing A Levels at school. I worked at Snaresbrook Crown Court and then after qualifying in 1993 I went to work at the Old Bailey. After transferring companies and moving to work at Courts in Essex for a few years, in 1998 I started to branch into STTR and live captioning work and have done mainly that ever since. I am a member of BIVR, AVSTTR and I am NRCPD registered.
I'm interested in deaf and disability issues. I passed my Level 1 in British Sign Language during the Covid lockdown.
I have recently moved to Mid Wales for a quieter life. I enjoy working from home but I can work in Shropshire, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester or Wales if required.
