I collaborate with creative professionals and organisations to design real world projects that inspire creativity and build essential skills for life and work.Currently, I am the Director of Makerspace at School 21 in East London, where I’ve been part of pioneering innovative practices such as oracy, coaching, and project-based learning since its founding.

Our Makerspace in Camden provides young people with hands-on opportunities to explore their potential through real-world learning.Let’s connect to discuss innovative education, creativity, and collaboration!
