EXPERIENCE
My relevant experience includes:
- Working with subject matter experts to develop materials for instructor-led and self-paced online training courses about information security;
- Analysing training needs, then designing, developing, facilitating, and evaluating staff training;
- Delivering lectures to trainee teachers as an invited guest lecturer at a local university;
- Creating asynchronous e-learning courses for parents;
- Designing, delivering and evaluating 6-16 hour courses for adult learners about online safety, basic computer skills, and how to use digital skills to support teaching and learning;
- Creating visual summaries of courses, books, conferences, and webinars about learning theories and instructional design models, and sharing these via a LinkedIn newsletter.
People often comment that I use an unusual blend of both logic and creativity. I enjoy summarising information and presenting it visually or analysing data and presenting it in charts and graphs.

PERSONAL
I live in Bristol, UK, and love walking along the beach and in forests. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, a variety of crafts, photography, digital art, and learning Python coding. Some of my personal creative projects (using Adobe Photoshop and Procreate) can be viewed on my Behance portfolio and some of my photography on 500px. I can also be found performing in amateur plays, musicals and pantomimes, most recently in a murder mystery play.
