She loves the face to face aspect of being on reception, meeting and greeting faces both human and furry. Joleen owns a French Bulldog called Lars; he is rather cheeky but extremely cute and therefore gets away with pretty much everything. She has a keen interest in cake baking and decorating which keeps her busy in her spare time.
