Bio

I am an Educational Development and English for Academic Purposes specialist with expertise in higher education curriculum development as a socially situated knowledge-informed practice. As Academic Lead for thePostgraduate Award in Curriculum Development in Higher Education (PGA CDHE) and ADC Curriculum Hub (non credit-bearing CPD), I teach academic staff how to design inclusive, research-informed, and socially purposeful curricula, integrating theory and practice to support meaningful educational change. My curriculum work foregrounds sustainability, social justice, and epistemic equity, drawing on Legitimation Code Theory (LCT) and other theoretical frameworks. View the Curriculum Experts site for more information on my curriculum expertise.

As Academic Lead for theWarwick Awards for Teaching Excellence (WATE), I champion inclusive, values-driven approaches to recognising and fostering teaching excellence across the University.

A Senior Fellow of Advance HE, I mentor and assess on accredited Fellowship programmes (D1–D3) and support educational scholarship through engagement with our annual Warwick Education Conference. I am also a Fellow of the Warwick Institute of Engagement (WIE). Beyond Warwick, I am an external examiner, journal peer reviewer, and editorial board member. My doctoral research centres on the development and social impact of myCurriculum for Change framework.

As an educator and researcher, I am committed to exploring inclusive, knowledge-informed curricula that connect theory and practice, and to supporting educators within and beyond Warwick in advancing transformative learning and teaching.
