I lead the International Partnerships and Student Mobility teams.

Areas of interest

Although the teams above are part of ISLI, we work with all Schools across the University of Reading to help deliver our international partnerships and student mobility objectives.

Background

With a first degree in Economics and a Masters in Applied Linguistics, I came this role with an international background in Banking and Finance Risk initially, and then Academic English. After working in a several UK higher education institutes, I joined Reading in 2013 and have worked with Schools and departments across the university, first as Director of ISLI's Academic English Programme and since Oct 2016, as Head of International Partnerships.

I live in Oxford with my wife and two children. I spend most of my spare time managing my son's football team and enjoying the Oxfordshire countryside.
