Jackie was a pupil at Kirkcudbright Academy before studying Business Organisation at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh where she was awarded an Honours degree.
She then went on to pursue a career as a retail buyer, sourcing homeware products from around the world for a number of high street retailers and came to
The IT Centre with a wealth of knowledge and experience from her previous roles.
In 2003, she decided to relocate back to the area where she grew up and loves living and working in the Stewartry. She enjoys the outdoors and likes skiing, walking and cycling.
“I enjoy the variety of the job. Each day is different and presents new challenges."
“I could be teaching a complete beginner one minute and then doing some more advanced training the next - it certainly keeps you on your toes. It’s also good to be part of the community, helping people to learn something new and improving their lives."
“Being able to use a computer is an essential part of our lives today, whether it’s just to surf the net or send an e-mail. And it’s never too late to learn!”
