About me

Occupation Youth Worker
Location Chorleywood, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom
Introduction I'm a youth worker in Hertfordshire for Carpenters Community Church (which I love very much). I love to think about youth work, it's a vocation not just an occupation to me. I also love thinking creatively about theology, life and creativity itself. I also love to get creative and make stuff; my sewing machine is very well used, as is my oven (I love to bake!) I now have a shiny new camera... which provides a whole new outlet for creativity! Alongside my job I love getting involved with other projects; speaking and training at outside events, networking and learning from other youth workers, and writing. I've just written a book with scripture union- a resource for 14 to 18 year olds, exploring prayer- particularly looking at prayer integrated with every aspect of our lives, and have been exploring Urban Retreat projects for young adults in London.
Interests Running, baking, art galleries, film, literature
Favorite Movies Amelie, Australia, Moulin Rouge, Princess Diaries, Bewitched, The Hours, Coco Before Chanel
Favorite Music honestly- so dependant on my mood. good quality artists that create original music is always interesting and/or inspiring, but at the same time i don't mind a bit of up-tempo cheesey pop for a run!
Favorite Books The Bible I guess! Growing Souls, Mark Yaconelli Celebration of Discipline, Richard Foster Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen Summer Sisters, Judy Blume The Time Travellers Wife, Audrey Niffenegger The Birth of Venus, Sarah Dunnant
