For more than 30 years, I have worked in and with schools around the world, helping create the conditions in which young people can learn, grow and thrive.

My experience spans classroom teaching, curriculum development, school evaluation and international consultancy. I have taught in the UK, Spain and Germany and collaborated with organisations including the International Baccalaureate (IB), the Council of International Schools (CIS) and Harvard Project Zero. Through workshops, conferences, school evaluations and consulting projects, I have worked with educators across more than 40 schools.

Over time, my focus has increasingly turned to the relationship between learning and well-being. I have seen how students' sense of belonging, engagement, purpose and agency can shape not only how they experience school, but how they learn and develop. I believe the lasting value of education lies not only in what students know when they leave school, but in who they have become.

Alongside my educational experience, I have developed expertise in project management (PMI), change management and school improvement through the University of London. I have also worked on monitoring and measuring change and gathering student and community feedback, giving me a broader perspective on how schools plan, evaluate and sustain improvement.

I believe meaningful change is most effective when it grows from a school's own context, strengths and aspirations. My role is to bring experience, evidence and fresh perspectives to that process, working alongside schools to identify what will make a genuine and lasting difference.
