I am a Senior Fellow of Advance HE, and a qualified teacher with a PGCE PCET.

I am Programme Lead for the Senior Fellowships Programme, which is accredited by Advance HE to recognise leaders of teaching in Higher Education. I teach learning and teaching theory, practice and reflection to colleagues from across the university, whether academic or professional services staff. I also teach Inclusive Education across Associate Fellow, Fellow and Senior Fellow programmes.

As part of the Inclusive Education project, I co-construct professional learning with Schools, create asynchronous resources, and run a CPD workshop series on inclusive education, available to all staff in Cardiff University.
