As an early EdTech adopter, I helped pioneer one of the UK’s first large‑scale LMS implementations in the early that technology, when done right, streamlines processes and improves outcomes.In 2016, I transitioned from school leadership to global enablement with a Microsoft solution provider, supporting schools across regions—from a major device rollout in Georgia to driving Microsoft Teams adoption across the Middle East.Today at IRIS Education, I lead teams building education management solutions—including iSAMS (a leading SIS for independent schools) and Central, our data platform—so educators can turn insight into action and improve student success.How I workStrategic vision: I connect the big picture to a practical roadmap, from discovery to delivery.Collaborative leadership: I build trust, empower teams, and create conditions for exceptional outcomes—guided by Daniel Pink’s Autonomy, Mastery, Purpose.Clear communication: I translate complexity, align stakeholders, and inspire action.Focus areas: EdTech strategy, SIS & data platforms, customer discovery, AI-enablement in schools, change management, GTM alignment, and measurable impact.If you’re building the future of learning—or deploying data to drive better decisions—I’d love to connect.Keywords: EdTech • Product Strategy • Roadmaps • SIS • Data Platforms • AI in Education • Customer Discovery • Stakeholder Management • Agile • Go‑to‑Market
