A Bit About Me

With over 20 years of experience in education, I've had the privilege of working in various inner-city comprehensives before joining Woodeaton Manor School in 2009, where I assumed the role of Headteacher in 2018.

​

Throughout my career, I've collaborated with an incredible teams to advocate for the needs of neurodiverse young people and their families. I firmly believe that every young person can thrive and succeed given the right strategies and experiences to navigate our increasingly complex world.

​

In 2024, I founded Milestone Mentoring. At Milestone Mentoring, our mission is to equip neurodiverse young people with these strategies and experiences, integrating their social, emotional, and academic needs into an overarching plan delivered by our experienced staff.

We are dedicated to helping all young people unlock their full potential, regardless of their past experiences.

​

Prior to transitioning to education, I worked as a management consultant, supporting local authorities and registered social landlords. My focus was on ensuring that tenants had a voice in the decisions made by their landlords.
