My Role at TSC

I've been a Creative Artworker for longer than I care to remember. A considerable amount of my career has been focused on the automotive sector, so joining TSC is a real departure for me, and a great opportunity to continue to learn and grow in an environment with very different design requirements. I was aware of the importance of cybersecurity, but since becoming part of The Security Company team I'm starting to understand just how essential it is – to protect both individuals and organisations alike from an ever-increasing number of online threats.

I try to bring clean and attractive aesthetics to TSC products, as well as the ability to work as well as possible. My goal is to make sure content is interesting but still deliver the same message. My products grab attention and are engaging.

Why I love working at TSC

I love working at TSC because I like learning new stuff in the cybersecurity industry and becoming far more aware of the industry itself. And the people, everyone at TSC is friendly and supportive and such a breath of fresh air. 

What I want to change in cybersecurity awareness

I think people’s individual awareness. We need individuals to update and patch their smart devices regularly, but do they do it often enough? We need individuals to be aware that protection isn’t a racket but rather a prerequisite in the world we live in now.

My security tip:

Update. Update. Update. People don’t realise they are leaving themselves open to breaches when you don't update to patch gaps in the coding.

Get to know me (my favourite books, shows and films)

Book: Bitter Lemons of Cyprus by Lawrence Durrell (1957)

TV Show: Peep Show (2003), The Prisoner (1967)

Film: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)

What do you enjoy doing when you're not working?

I’m a petrol head, so I love motor racing and classic cars. I also love going to gigs and concerts as a big music lover.
