About

My formal background training is in education, where I gained experience in both teaching and lecturing.  I moved into the field of research and development working in public health care settings. 

From there, I led a spin-out which grew into a leading consultancy specialising in research-based evaluation. The bulk of this latter work featured evaluating outcome and impact of major public sector investment.

I completed a fellowship with the NCEE in enterprise and entrepreneurship education and branched out to university teaching.  I have authored three books on creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. 

The latest ‘chapter’ of my work has involved a move into the support of developing creative ideas that can add value to a community.
