I have lived in Norfolk for most of my life (and have lived in Wymondham since January 2015).

I am a Partner at Birketts LLP where I have acted for high profile local educational establishments and advised Governors and senior staff on important strategic and operational decisions. I am active in the business community and work hard to contribute to the development of our School.

Education and the School experience are vitally important for our children. I welcome input from parents and carers.

In my spare time, you will often find me at Ketts Park coaching youth football for Wymondham Town United Football Club.

I currently work as an aviation advisor and inspector in the Offshore, maritime & superyacht industry. As part of my role I sit on National and international working groups and liaise with the UK CAA to ensure continual development in aviation safety. Previous to this role I was a Firefighter in the RAF and a Firefighting & offshore safety instructor in Norwich. 

I have 2 children attending Robert Kett and both thoroughly enjoy their time at school. 

I look forward to assisting the current team of governors in delivering the schools strategic priorities and contributing to the vision and ethos of the school.

I have lived in Wymondham for the past 12 years with my wife and now two sons who both attend Robert Kett Primary.

I am keen to support the school in its ongoing development working as part of the Governing Body. I am fond of and suited to working as part of a team, whether that be with colleagues or partners.

As a Detective Inspector I manage teams investigating serious and complex offences. I regularly sit on multi-agency panels reviewing domestic homicides and child safeguarding practices.

I have been a primary school teacher since 2018, having previously working in retail banking for a couple of high street banks. Since becoming a teacher I have specialised in Key Stage 2 and I am currently the maths lead for the school. After leading on a successful reading fluency project for the school in the last academic year, I am also currently leading a project to improve oracy across the school. 

Education is something I have always been passionate about and strongly believe in life long learning - something I ensure I practice and not just preach and am completing my dissertation for Masters in Education this year as well as a National Professional Qualification in Leading Teaching. Prior to returning to university to gain a degree and pursuing teaching, I worked for two high street banks in sales roles where I gained my qualification in mortgage advice and practice. Whilst I was studying for my degree I also undertook some temporary work in a small multi-academy trust’s finance department which has given me a good understanding of schools funding.
