About me
My passion is working to help to realise the potential for higher education to lead sustainable development. I have been teaching in higher education for more than 20 years and am privileged to lead UWE's MSc Sustainable Development in Practice. I am driven by the enthusiasm of students, the inspiration of colleagues and the needs of the environment and society.
I am extremely proud of things which others have said about me:

“has integrity, is a great collaborator and has my highest commendation”
“an exceptional educator”
“skilled at sensitively challenging dominant paradigms around ESD and is a respected voice"
"as a result of engaging with her, I have reflected on and changed my own teaching practice”
