Anna Phillips

Originally from Kazakhstan, I’ve been calling the UK home since 2007. As a Sales Coordinator, I keep things running smoothly for the team, making sure everything is in the right place at the right time.

Outside of work, I have a few creative passions (and side hustles!)—gardening, sewing, and nail art keep me busy. I’m also a big fan of mystery dramas and anything that keeps my mind active, whether it’s learning a new skill, picking up an interesting fact, or practicing Italian.

Being neurodivergent means I see things a little differently, which helps me stay organized and think outside the box. If I’m not working or creating something, you’ll probably find me planning my next project—or adding another plant to my ever-growing collection!

If you could be on any TV Show, what would it be and why?

Great British Sewing Bee perhaps. Sewing is one of my hobbies. I like creating nice clothes that no-one else has. Although I wouldn’t like the pressure of the competition and being in front of the camera, I would probably enjoy the creativity and the friendships.

If you could choose any fictional place to live in, what would it be and why?

All the fictional places I could think of have some villain threatening one’s livelihood, so no thank you! I like my reality.

You’re stranded on a deserted island and can only bring one meal with you to eat indefinitely, what would it be and why?

Any pasta dish as long as it’s cheesy. I love cheesy pasta. I can eat it every day and never get tired of it.

What would your coworkers be surprised to learn about you?

I picked the components and built the gaming PC for my son.

What 3 things in your bag can’t you live without?

My smartphone, car keys and lip balm.
