Sue Marston-Weston CBA
Sue has been involved in the balloon industry since 1991, starting with a home based balloon company and latterly moving into further education, and has taught as an instructor for Pioneer in many countries worldwide.
After following the QBN programme and becoming a CBA, Sue progressed in the balloon trade by attending as many industry events as possible. She will tell you that if you want to learn skills from some of the industries best, then there is no better way than by attending an event or convention where you will live, eat, sleep and breathe balloons for a few days.
Sue has won many awards and was voted best UK training provider of the year several times. She now works with Conwin as their Sales Manager.
“I love my job, working with balloons and I get a great deal of satisfaction creating something new and sharing it with others” says Sue. “I can honestly say that in 17 years I have never had a bad day or wished that I did something else for my living”. |
