Following a drama degree, a yearning to act, a number of jobs that are frankly best forgotten; Naomi began her career in casting and loved every minute of it. She then had a child and for practical reasons retrained as a teacher which was both challenging yet satisfying. She did miss casting though and so is very happy to be back within the SBC family for as long as it may last. As well as an appreciation of a good film and an interesting box set, Naomi loves seeing friends, eating lots of food, the sea and dancing (occasionally on a table).
