Areas of interest
I have had a lifetime interest in the protection of the environment which I pursued initially with regulatory councils and later as an environmental manager in the oil and chemicals industry. My MBA dissertation investigated sustainability in the Petrochemical industry
In teaching and learning I am interested in improving engagement and achievement of less able students.
Background
Trained as a chemist, then worked for many years as an environmental scientist with design and sales experience in the water treatment and petrochemical industries. I retrained and entered the education sector via a scheme to attract scientists from industry and taught chemistry at secondary level. After leaving permanent teaching in 2019 I worked at ÌÇÐÄVlog University on the Foundation course on a part-time basis for two years then rejoined the University full time in 2023 as a lecturer in Statistics and Data Science.
