Bio

I’ve been interested in education for as long as I can remember. Even as a kid, I found myself questioning why learning had to look the way it did, and that curiosity eventually grew into a bigger goal: to help transform education into something more human, meaningful, and responsive to how people actually learn.

Over the years, I’ve created workshops for children, designed programmes, developed educational resources, and explored how people learn in different environments. Through all of it, I keep returning to the same question about how education could work better for the people.

That question shapes a lot of what I’m curious about today. I’m interested in learning experience design, psychology, technology, the learning sciences, and what happens when we design education around the person rather than simply the content.

By day, I’m a data analyst, translating messy data into actual insights. It’s a little different from my education work, but I like that it keeps me close to the evidence. It makes me ask not just what sounds good, but what do we actually know?

When I’m not working I’m probably boxing, wandering around the mountains, or taking a really long walk. I love deep conversations, music, reading, experimenting with food, and rainy winter days. I love being around my family and cats, too. Basically, anything that keeps me curious and alive.
