After a career in IT (mostly in Canada) I retired and returned to England. I was seeking a hobby to keep my brain active and the rest is history, I guess, as I now have a thriving business that occupies me on a full time basis. I started my journey in late 2015 as a sprightly 63 year and I'm enjoying my work so much that retirement could not be further from my mind.

I find great satisfaction in helping others and I love offering advice to new starters and encouraging people into our profession. To that end I am honoured and delighted to have the chance to be an Ambassador for Ideal Schools and have the chance to give something back.

I am a passionate ICB member as I have benefitted from their qualifications and services and, coupled with Ideal Schools as a Learning partner, it is an ideal recipe for success.

I'm really looking forward to helping others.
