Finally, I work on projects, CPD and staff support which align with the specialisms below. I can offer a listening ear, critical input, or CPD and support in these areas.

Biography
Before I took on my current role, I have worked as a Learning Designer and Developer in Digital Education teams. I particularly enjoyed looking at how staff can design asynchronous sessions to make the most of on campus time.
I am a former ENCAP student and was awarded the Dell Hymes Prize for Excellence in Sociolinguistics when I completed my undergraduate degree. Linguistics is a passion of mine and I have been fortunate enough to teach several modules in Cardiff University’s Centre for Lifelong Learning (LEARN).
I was a secondary Teacher of English and completed my Masters in Educational Practice whilst teaching. It was here that I developed an interest in scholarship of teaching and learning.
On a more personal note, what gets me fired up is seeing learning come to life in the classroom (and other spaces!). I love listening to teachers reflecting on their learning and find it is a privilege to create space for busy practitioners to have the chance to think. I enjoy being a sounding board and am partial to a cup of tea and a walk in the fresh air to generate inspiration.
