After nearly a decade spent as a teacher / trainer in Asia, I came back to Glasgow to embrace my fears. I joined DWP in July 2016, and PCS on day one. I recently became a team leader, and live by the rule that it's nice to be nice. I enjoy helping others and have started to play a more active role within the union, starting by becoming a deputy rep. I am looking forward to becoming more active within PCS to champion equality and encourage and promote an inclusive working environment for all.
