Who I am? What am I about?

Picture
I have worked for 20 years in the education sector across New Zealand, London, the United States and currently in The United Arab Emirates in Dubai. I have worked as a teacher, as a behaviour consultant, managed specialist provisions, worked in public sector reform to enact change, led schools as a principal and principal/CEO, worked to support the work of a not for profit charity; chairing committees and developing specific aspects to support the growth of the Foundation. Outside education I have taught water skiing and worked as a painter/decorator, got married and raised three children.

All of these things come together to build me in to the leader and person that I am today. In my leadership I call on the variety of experiences that I have been through to listen, reflect and act.

Please take a look at my history, experiences and read my blog posts to understand how we are currently building forward to engineer a better education for our children.
