Sales and Project Manager
Lynn has been working with lighting for almost 30 years, 13 of those spent working for the leading lighting controls company, until she joined Clearly Automated in 2013, bringing with her a wealth of expertise in the design and programming of lighting controls.
Lynn enjoys the variety that her job brings, working with architects, specifiers, lighting and interior designers, and end users. She has worked on some fabulous projects including theatres in Leeds and Manchester, hotels spas and restaurants throughout the UK, museums, churches, shopping centres, universities, and St George’s Square in Huddersfield, lighting the train station there that Sir John Betjamin described as the most impressive building façade outside St Pancras.

Lynn also loves working with homeowners, helping them to create magic within their new homes. She has an empathy that enables her to understand the needs of her customers, and to interpret those needs within the design. With lighting control, it’s important to keep the it simple and intuitive, and a joy to use.
Lynn lives in Yorkshire and loves walking in the Dales, relaxing at home and mountain biking in various exotic locations around the world.
