Work
I started out as a playworker and primary school teacher, then moved into technology education and education technology (’edtech’) in 2012.
I am currently Director of Product Management at the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
Previously I’ve worked for/with organisations such as FutureLearn, the Department for Education, Kings College London, Nord Anglia Schools, and Code Club.
Volunteering
I run a Code Club and am a parent governor at my daughter’s school.
I am also making stuff to help parents understand Cambridge schools and admissions, starting with a secondary school comparison spreadsheet.
Education
I hold an MA in Sociology of Education from the Institute of Education, UCL, a BSc in Sociology from the London School of Economics, and a Primary PGCE from Goldsmiths.
Music
I’ve been in a few bands, including a metal band called Ex People and an indie-pop band called Internet Forever. I also used to organise shows and run a small DIY record label.
