I've spent a lot of my life talking to educators.

I'm a New Zealand-trained primary teacher who's spent more than 20 years working in education, from classrooms and school leadership to technology, consultancy and building businesses that support schools.

After eight years working in New Zealand, I moved to Singapore in 2012. I've been working in and alongside international schools ever since, connecting educators, leaders and education businesses across Asia-Pacific and globally.

Today, I bring those worlds together. I understand what happens in classrooms, what school leaders need, and what it takes to create products and partnerships that make a genuine difference.

From school corridors to conference rooms, and back again.

Schools need solutions that solve real problems, not just polished presentations. Education businesses need honest feedback, trusted relationships and a clear understanding of what educators and school leaders actually need.

I co-founded EduSpark with Andrew Mowat, support Hologo as Chief Growth Officer (Consultant), and have worked as a regional education consultant for Samsung across Southeast Asia and Oceania.

These experiences have taught me how to ask useful questions, bring the right people together and follow through after the initial excitement. I still enjoy rolling up my sleeves and doing the work.

Practical experience, a broad network and an educator's instincts.

I work with school leaders, founders and education teams who value honest conversations, useful connections and practical next steps. Whether you're building a product, opening a new market or making technology more meaningful in your school, I can help you see the challenge from both the education and business sides.
