I am an experienced education professional with more than three decades of expertise across teaching, content development, and publishing. Currently, I work as a publisher at a leading educational publishing house, where I manage projects from conception to final product in both print and digital formats. My publishing experience spans over 10 years and includes textbooks, lecturers’ guides, teachers’ guides, and workbooks. I also have extensive experience in digital publishing—developing ebooks, interactive assessments, and supplementary resources such as animations and other multimedia. Much of my work involves collaborating with authors, reviewing manuscripts, shaping courses, and ensuring that content is accurate, engaging, and pedagogically sound. Before moving into publishing, I spent 13 years as a high school teacher and a further 20 years developing educational content. Alongside this, I have more than 10 years of experience in editing across a variety of education-related materials. Academically, I hold a Master’s degree in Education, a Science Honours degree, and an Arts Honours degree with a specialization in skills development. This background allows me to bring both subject matter expertise and educational theory into practical publishing and course design. I am particularly passionate about creating accessible, high-quality learning resources that support teachers, lecturers, and learners at all levels, as well as ensuring excellence in all formats of written English.
