"I push boundaries in both personal and professional senses and enjoy being out of my comfort zone."

Lucinda has a diverse range of qualifications ranging from financial and business subjects to herbal and Chinese medicine. Born in Singapore, she began her career in Risk Management before undertaking various roles involving I.T. in the financial sector. Single Lucinda now lives in Edinburgh and lists Dr Oliver Sacks - the subject of the Robert De Niro film Awakenings - as her hero. Describing herself as impulsive and intolerant but affable and passionate, Lucinda is a keen aromatherapist, harpist and scuba diver. She once turned down the chance to be a scuba diving body double in a James Bond film because it would have interrupted her university studies.
