Biography

I am a highly experienced and creative Learning Technologist and digital learning designer, and a Certified Facilitator in the LEGO Serious Play method for Higher Education. I enjoy working with subject matter experts to bring business education to life in a range of formats, and to plan, produce and deliver engaging and memorable learning experiences.

Since joining the Faculty in 2015 I have played a central role in a number of digital enhancement projects. My experience in audio-visual production and graphic design is matched by my attention to detail and experience using a range of applications and platforms to deliver learning. I played a key role in the acquisition and initial use of a Lightboard to improve the quality of audio-visual resources in Business School modules – I was asked to give a lightning talk about this at TELFest North West in December 2019 – a commendation and recording of the talk is available on the Association for Learning Technology (ALT) website.

I have co-designed and delivered a number of LEGO Serious Play workshops for alumni events and in student education spanning a range of topics.
