What had been your favourite memory working at OUEV?

"A team chat where everyone was sharing their talents and laughing so hard we cried!"

What's your superpower at work?

"The work equivalent of flying perhaps? I like to see things from new perspectives and have a long-reaching vision."

What's a fun fact about yourself?

"I have lived in four different countries and learnt six different languages, but mostly forgotten them now."

“Ellen is a highly creative, tactful, supportive, and inspirational leader, bringing an expansive career in heritage and cultural buildings towards her visionary strategies at the Sheldonian. She constantly entertains and captivates our team with her many fascinating experiences, covering an impressive range from massage therapy to Chinese languages.” - Declan
