Currently, I am the Director of Student and Academic Services (Academic Registrar equivalent) at The University of Manchester. Appointed to the Academic Registrars’ Council Executive for 2025-28, and lead our Annual Conference. As an Education Researcher and Talogy-accredited Emotional Intelligence (EIP3) coach.
