About

Practitioner, educator, strategist

I am Head of Insights at MKC Training, a UK Defence training contractor operating within Ministry of Defence governance, where I lead on educational insight, pedagogical development, and AI strategy.

My work sits at the intersection of how people learn, how organisations develop capability, and how AI — used well — can extend the reach and quality of both. I serve as AI Risk Owner for Generative AI, translating emerging capability into grounded, responsible practice.

My background spans frontline adult education, senior leadership, qualification and assessment design, coaching, and mediation — giving me a wide frame of reference for the problems that sit underneath most L&D and AI challenges.
