The Apprentice

Firstly, I would like to thank all those who have offered support and well wishes during and since the airing of The Apprentice on BBC 1. As one of sixteen applicants who made it through to the BBC series, "The Apprentice" I made it to the final. Being fired in week 12 of 12, I gained a lot of experience and had a throughly enjoyable time.

Between completion of filming the Apprentice and the final episode, I was employed by Sir Alan's company, Viglen, until the winner was announced. I currently am taking my time reviewing the opportunities that I am receiving on a daily basis. Being on the apprentice has always been about carving out a successful career as a highly influential business woman, this still is my priority .......... "the world is my oyster"

...she will dust herself off and rise, like [a] phoenix, to win at something else
