Bio

If I'm not educating or being educated...I think about education! I know my instincts, I have the discipline to question them and I have the courage to make decisions.

I believe in a more thorough first principle approach, if time allows, but I'm practical and adaptable enough to understand that at times "fixes" and "short term goals" need to be achieved in haste.

• UK, Teacher, 2004-2011 (Incl. Head of Science Faculty)

• St Andrew's College, Teacher of Sciences (all three), 2011-2019
