Tell us a little about yourself
-
I am a very self motivated person who comes from a working class background and have used those values in all that I do. I love a challenge and am very proud of the International Tranpsort business I have built with my colleagues over the last 29 years. Now an integral part of DB Schenker am really enjoying working in a Pan European environment for Europe’s largest land transport company. If you don’t innovate you die. Also a passionate believer in centre ground politics and am proud of the role the UUP has played in delivering a more stable society for the people of Northern Ireland. I am a rare breed as a private sector person involved in NI politics. We need to change that to improve the skills base and therefore capacity of Stormont.
