I am a Senior Lecturer and Postgraduate Quality & Student Success Lead at the University of Gloucestershire, with responsibilities spanning teaching, student support, academic leadership, and external partnership development. I also serve as Senior Tutor and Academic Lead for Student Futures in Computing and Cyber, where I work to enhance the student experience, strengthen graduate employability, and build meaningful connections between the university and industry.
Before moving into higher education, I spent more than a decade leading operational teams in fast-moving consumer goods. That professional background continues to shape my approach to leadership, teaching, and applied problem-solving, particularly in areas where organisational practice and technology intersect.
Alongside my university role, I have been seconded to CyNam as Strategic Ecosystem Development and Research Lead. Through this work, I collaborate with partners across industry, academia, and government to support the growth of Gloucestershire’s cyber and technology ecosystem, develop external partnerships, and contribute to discussions around digital skills, innovation, and regional economic development.
My work is grounded in a practical interest in how technologies such as AI, automation, cyber security, and FinTech can create meaningful impact for students, organisations, and the wider community.
I teach across undergraduate computing programmes, including Computer Science, Cyber Security, and related disciplines. My teaching focuses on employability, agile working, digital transformation, and practice-based learning, with an emphasis on helping students connect academic study to professional and organisational contexts.
I am particularly interested in designing learning experiences that build confidence, adaptability, and career readiness, and in supporting students to develop the technical, professional, and reflective skills needed to succeed in a rapidly changing digital landscape. Alongside teaching, I serve as Senior Tutor, providing academic guidance and pastoral support to help students progress and achieve their potential.
My research explores the relationship between emerging technologies, employability, organisational practice, and digital transformation. I am particularly interested in how higher education and industry can work together to address skills needs, support innovation, and prepare students for the future of work.
I have contributed to work on topics including employability in computer science education, agile project-based learning, digital skills development, and the organisational impact of technologies such as AI and automation. I am also interested in the ways regional ecosystems, employer engagement, and applied collaboration can shape talent development within technology and cyber sectors.
