Professional Background:
I have thirty years’ experience in further and higher education, having taught and run a range of programmes including BSc Social Enterprise Leadership, MBA in Leadership and Sustainability and Undergraduate Business & Management Studies.
My most recent employment was with the University of Cumbria as course leader for the Aspiring Leaders’ Programme – a degree aimed at young adults involved in the Third Sector.
I have a degree in Economics, PGCE, MA in International Studies, MA in Creative Writing and a PhD in Creative Writing.
As part of my academic research, I have attended numerous conferences and published research papers
Outside of work:
My passion is Creative Writing and I now deliver writing class through Lakeland Writers.
When not writing, I spent time on the Cumbrian fells or make some noise with Drum Nation, a Kendal based community samba-reggae drumming band.
I also frequent the Brewery Arts Centre to watch films or catch some live music.
