The phone has not stopped ringing, I have attracted more high-end clients and have been booked for new and exciting projects.

“My ambition now is to go into schools and colleges to talk about the advantages of a career in the trade and inspire the next generation of skilled tradespeople. I would definitely encourage others to enter this life-changing competition, you never know where it will take you!”
