Personal Background
Outside the office, Ms. Knettles devotes her time to her lively family—including three younger siblings who ensure she never forgets the value of patience. She shares her home with one very opinionated dog, Nugget, and three cats—Blue, Matty, and Maisie—who each believe they are the rightful managing partner of the household.
A dedicated reader, movie enthusiast, and Formula 1 fan, she proudly cheers for Lando Norris and the McLaren team (even when it tests her blood pressure). She is also an avid music collector, curating a library impressive enough to rival some small record stores.
