L E May

When she was 9 years old, L.E. May's teacher set a homework assignment to write a sentence that demonstrated herunderstanding of the word ambition . She wrote, When I grow up, I want to be an author, like Jackie Collins.

She has always pursued a more creative career. Following university she lived in London, working in a few music industry companies. When she moved back to Liverpool she started working in a communications role, focusing on digital media and eventually, following redundancy in 2011, she started my own business, providing website design, graphics and film/animation services.

She spends her spare time watching TV, supporting Liverpool FC and playing video games with her equally nerdy boyfriend and their two cats. She also eats an awful lot of pizza.
