About

I am an experienced engineer, educator, and learning & development professional specialising in graduate development, personal effectiveness, and early careers coaching within corporate and regulated environments. I am educated to Master's level with postgraduate qualifications in quality education, and I bring a strong combination of industry credibility and high-impact learning delivery. My early career was in semiconductor and photonics engineering, where I delivered corporate learning and development, technical training, and performance improvement within high-reliability manufacturing environments. This included coaching colleagues, supporting continuous improvement, and developing professional behaviours aligned to quality, safety, and operational excellence. I have since built extensive experience in graduate and early-career development, delivering personal effectiveness programmes, blended learning, and structured coaching. I currently work with undergraduates and graduates at Lancaster University, delivering graduate development and personal effectiveness provision, including workshops on communication, professional identity, reflective practice, and workplace readiness. Alongside this, I deliver corporate L&D and consultancy through my education company and freelance work, supporting organisations with workforce development, graduate progression, and professional skills training. I am highly experienced in delivering engaging learning to variable group sizes, both online and face-to-face, and I am comfortable with national travel and overnight stays. My work has been nationally recognised, including being awarded STEM Teacher of the Year (Post-16, National) in 2022 by STEM Learning, presented by the Baroness of Cambridge. I take strong professional pride in my practice, engage actively in continuous professional development, and consistently review feedback to improve programme quality and learner impact. I am seeking a role within early careers, skills development, or learning and development where I can combine my engineering background, coaching expertise, and passion for developing graduates within a large, complex organisation such as BAE Systems.
