With 3 decades in education, I have held senior leadership roles across international schools and education organizations, including serving as Head of School at South Africa’s only IB Continuum school, Founding Principal of Hsinchu International School’s Secondary Department in Taiwan, and Chief of Partnerships at Valenture Institute/UCT Online High School.
