I’ve spent over a decade in the education and qualifications world—though my path here hasn’t been straightforward. After my time in the Royal Navy, I trained as a teacher and discovered first-hand that learning doesn’t look the same for everyone. I’ve experienced those struggles myself, and as a parent to two kids (one who finds school tough, and one who breezes through), I see just how much the system can miss individual needs.
That’s why I’m passionate about making training and qualifications in residential childcare genuinely accessible. Drawing on my experience as a qualified teacher, I work alongside staff—not just ticking boxes, but making sure they get the support and skills they need, without the jargon or unnecessary hurdles. No one-size-fits-all here; I believe everyone deserves a shot at success, whether they’re just starting out or looking to grow in their career.
I’m big on workforce growth, real development, and making a difference where it counts. If you’re in this sector and want to chat about training, qualifications, or just how to do things differently, I’m always up for a conversation.
Coaching, mentoring, and helping people grow has been my passion for over 20 years. My journey has taken me from leading large teams to working closely with individuals—all with the goal of unlocking potential and building high-performing, supportive cultures.
As a dad to three girls, I’m especially motivated to raise education standards.
Coaching, mentoring, and helping people grow has been my passion for over 20 years. My journey has taken me from leading large teams to working closely with individuals—all with the goal of unlocking potential and building high-performing, supportive cultures.
As a dad to three girls, I’m especially motivated to raise education standards. I want every child, not just my own, to have access to the best opportunities and support. This personal drive shapes how I approach my work every day.
With a Level 7 qualification in leadership coaching and mentoring, I specialise in designing tailored learning programmes and one-to-one coaching that truly make a difference. I’ve seen first-hand the impact that the right support and development can have—not just on organisations, but on people’s lives.
For me, it’s always been about more than just professional growth. It’s about helping people realise what they’re capable of and making a real, lasting difference wherever I can.
