What would you describe as pivotal moments in your career to date?

There are many moments and they continue to develop.

Life is a journey full of opportunities if we keep our eyes open and take the opportunities.
The most important moments have been the ones when I have dared to stand up for my values even when it has been against the easiest option or prevailing “mood in the room”.

That is when I have felt the best and gained most in confidence and self-respect.
