Governance

I am an experienced higher education professional with a passion for teaching and a commitment to providing students with the best possible learning experience. I am currently an Assistant Academic Registrar and University Lecturer at Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU), where I have been teaching for several years. I am also a published researcher with expertise in river system development in arid environments.

In addition to my teaching and research experience, I have a strong interest in governance and have served on a number of committees and boards, including the Governance of Degree Programmes in relation to aspects of quality assurance, validation and review of awards and examination boards. I am also a firm believer in the importance of community engagement and have been involved in a number of local initiatives, including the Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education (PGCHE) programme.

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy spending time with my family and exploring the outdoors. I am an avid camper and hiker, and I love nothing more than spending time in nature with my dog. I am also a passionate advocate for education and believe that all children deserve access to a quality education.

I joined the Trust Board in September 2021 because I am passionate about education and believe that all children deserve the best possible start in life. I am committed to working with the Central Trust to support their schools in providing high-quality education for all pupils.

I believe that my experience and expertise in higher education, governance, and community engagement make me a valuable asset to the Trust Board. I am committed to working with the other trustees to ensure that the Central Trust continues to provide high-quality education for all children in our community.
