My IT Background:
I designed websites during the dot com boom in the 90s and worked on early streaming digital television technology for independent companies and the BBC on the Red Button’s first on-demand content. I received a BBC Gillard Award for interactive content in 2002. I co-developed apps for festivals and tourism and became an early adopter of blockchain technology. I have been an IT, Communications & Media Tech Tutor for many years, teaching for BBC Learn Xpress, The WEA, Job Centre Plus, FE Colleges and ITITC, constantly empowering people to access creative technology to elevate their lives and well-being, while striving to find sustainable solutions to existing technology. Currently working with partners to roll out accessible satellite/AI modelling tools for local authorities and city planners.
I am a Director of The Association of Sustainability Practitioners, responsible for Innovation & Technology, and proud to be Hull University Graduands Marshall. I am also a STEM Learning Ambassador, a member of The Coders Guild, and a Judge for the Innovate North Awards.
