I am the Director of Diversification Programmes at Sheffield Hallam University. I lead on University-wide strategic Diversification Projects to develop new study offers to make higher education accesible to people outside our standard provision. My main project is Sheffield Hallam University in London, and I also lead on our Online-only provision. The London campus in the new Brent Cross Town development will involve working with a delivery partner to offer course provision to Undergraduate learners in North and West London.
I joined Sheffield Hallam in 2012 and my roles have included Head of the Department of the Natural and Built Environment and, most recently, Associate Dean for Business and Enterprise in the College of Social Sciences and Arts. I started my career in Higher Education as a lecturer in the Institute of Geography and Earth Sciences at Aberystwyth University, and have also previously worked at the University of Sheffield.
