I have a long and varied history in public/private sector education, skills, workforce development and business consultancy. A born and bred North Londoner, home is now Nottingham. I have a BA (Hons) in Social Science (Westminster), a PG Dip Careers Education & Training (Reading University), an MA in Ethical Leadership (Kings College London), Level 7 Award in Careers Leadership (Warwick).

I am proud co-founder of a Homeless Charity in Bedford set up in 2016 and still in operation to this day, and my amazing son who’s a neurodiverse winner!  I’ve co-authored a book, presented on community radio and pre-Covid could be found treading the boards as a motivational speaker.

I am passionate about all things that create equality for all, whether for the young or old and in particular how under-represented groups navigate the murky world of education and work.  When not travelling or doing any of the above, I can be found house renovating or on an upcycling project of one sort or another.. I am an avid walker, and consummate learner – I’m excited about the PhD journey at NUBS (Ãå±±½ûµØ Business School) and live by the phrase, everyday a school day!

Project title: Ageing, digital technologies and the future of workforce development.
