About Me

I'm a dedicated Careers and Professional Practice Advisor with over 20 years experience supporting individuals to make informed and confident decisions about their future. I have worked across a wide range of educational settings including colleges, secondary schools and universities, providing one-to-one guidance and delivering impactful careers education.

I previously worked as a Careers Leader in a secondary school, where I was responsible for the planning, coordination and implementation of the careers programme. This included large-scale activities such as work experience and a whole school careers fair. Throughout my career I have prioritised inclusive practice with a particular focus on supporting clients with additional needs.

Now working in higher education, I deliver inclusive, student centred careers support through both group sessions and individual guidance, helping students build confidence, explore their options, and plan their next steps.
