Meet Gabrielle

For the last 6 months Gabrielle Thomson has been working as part of team Glenkilrie Larder.  Back in the autumn, we managed to persuade Gabrielle to come onboard and she has proved to be a hard- working, approachable and competent person, such an asset! Here are a few questions we posed to her …

When not working with Glenkilrie Larder Gabrielle what do you do?
I am studying travel and tourism at Dundee College, with the hope of transitioning to a marketing degree in the summer.  In normal times, I also enjoy working at the Wee House of Glenshee, a gift shop and cafe.

What hobbies do you enjoy?
I love helping at home on the farm, baking, travelling, and helping my granny with her business – Drumturk Cheeses. Check our their award winning artisan cheeses website – here

Where has been your favourite travel destination?
The Isle of Lewis and Harris

Favourite thing about working for Glenkilrie Larder?
Working at Glenkilrie Larder gives me new experiences and I get to meet loads of new people.  It has just been great fun.

Can you tell us a bit about family life at home?
I live next door to my grandparents’ farm with my mum, dad, and wee brother. Having lived there all my life, we all enjoy helping where we can, be it with the Aberdeen Angus cattle, sheep or Toggenburg goats.

Can you share a fun fact about yourself? 
I can play the bagpipes.
