About
I have been a lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University since 1999, working initially with Sports Management students, before moving to Sheffield Business School in 2011. I am now part of the Marketing subject group and I am also the Programme Delivery Lead for the Made Smarter Leadership and Management training programme offered in the Yorkshire and the Humber region.
Previous roles involved me in developing and running courses in Australia and the Far East, as well as visiting a variety of countries in the Far East for student recruitment. My previous background was as a Project Manager for sport and arts tourism projects, and as a small business owner in sports events.
