After graduating from university with a BA(Hons) in Creative Writing and English Literature in 2009, Gemma spent the following two and a half years living and working as a journalist in New Zealand. It was through this work Gemma found her love of personal story and experience which has been a common thread in all her roles to date. Since her return to the UK Gemma has worked in a number of support and wellbeing roles with apprentices, veterans, and those looking for work. During this time Gemma completed an MA in International Relations and is currently undertaking a Doctorate in Coaching and Mentoring at Oxford Brookes University. As well as studying and running Connected, Gemma is also writing her second book ‘My Resilient Self’. Gemma lives in Wigan with her partner Scott and their Yorkshire Terrier, Taz.
