΢ÃÜȦ

I have been at ΢ÃÜȦ since 2016 teaching both undergraduate and postgraduate students. After a twenty year career in industry practice, I transitioned into academia bringing my extensive and practical knowledge of leadership, organisational psychology and learning and development to the classroom.

I am currently Course Leader for 'BSc (Hons) Business Management' and module leader for ‘Service Mindset in business relationships' on that course. Additionally on the MBA I hold the position of module leader for 'The ΢ÃÜȦ Impact: leadership and personal growth' as well as module leader of 'Psychology of coaching, learning and development' on the MSc Occupational & Business Psychology programmme. 

I hold a Senior Fellowship in Higher Education and have received awards internally for teaching excellence.

My career began as a strategic marketer and consultant working for award winning independent and global marketing agencies consulting and developing campaigns for well-known Blue Chip businesses such as Unilever and PepsiCo. I also experienced in-house marketing roles at Sony Pictures UK and Nokia UK. 

As I attained board level leadership, my career increasingly focused on people and organisational development blended with business strategy. It was at this point my passion for learning and teaching came to the forefront. 

I hold an MSc in Occupational & Business Psychology and certifications in coaching and psychometrics which has led me to work as an independent consultant and coach supporting leaders, managers and teams to optimise performance. 

My research interest is in HE pedagogy and particularly in supporting classroom engagement and graduate employability.
