What influences women’s car choices?
Cars aren't just for the boys, as is clear from the large number of women who visit the annual Geneva Automobile show. Surveys show that women are behind most couple’s purchasing decisions, and single women represent a growing market.

I have a wealth of experience as a journalist working in Switzerland and enjoy producing videos, articles and podcasts on a range of subjects, recently focused mainly on politics and the environment. Born in the UK, I studied law at Nottingham University, then went on to attend the first-ever post-graduate radio journalism college in London. After working as a radio journalist in the UK and then Switzerland from 1984 to 1995, I returned to the UK to complete a post-graduate diploma in film at Bournemouth Film School. I have been working as a video journalist ever since.
