I started out in 2017 teaching Biology and Chemistry in Uganda. Most recently I served as the Deputy Head Teacher for Academics at The Amazima School, responsible for 60+ teachers across the academic function. The route there ran through Head of Science and then Director of Studies — and that middle stretch is where I learned what actually holds a school back. Rarely the teaching. Usually the timetable nobody can change, the records nobody can find, and the reports that land two weeks after the decision had to be made.
So that became the work. Over seven years I led our LMS and SIS rollout end to end, from planning and testing through to enrolling about 125 users and supporting them long after go-live. I trained 62 teachers. I moved our academic records out of paper files and into systems you can actually search. And I've run three workshops on using AI in the classroom, because that question is now sitting on every teacher's desk whether the school has answered it or not.
I'm currently completing an MA in Computing in Education at the American University of Beirut, with a focus on learning management systems, digital learning design, education data systems and ICT integration. I've also coached high-school basketball for eight years, which has taught me more about getting a group to perform than any management course.
