Sobre o autor
My journey in education began back in 2006, when I eagerly stepped into the bustling halls of inner-city London schools. I immersed myself in the dynamic landscape of education, refining my skills and nurturing a deep passion for learning. In 2014, fuelled by a desire for new experiences and challenges, I made the bold decision to embark on an international adventure. With my family by my side, we embarked on a journey that led us to Oman, where I continued my career in education within a global context by 2020 during the height of the pandemic my journey took me to Qatar where I am now based.As I navigated the intricacies of international education, I found myself drawn to a new mission: supporting and empowering women in leadership roles. Over the years, my firsthand experiences have highlighted the barriers that women often face on their leadership journey. Driven by a dedication to equality and progress, I have committed myself to breaking down these barriers and championing the advancement of women in the field.Through mentorship, advocacy, and a relentless pursuit of change, I strive to create a more inclusive and equitable environment for all aspiring female leaders in education as a trustee and Global Strategic Leader for Women Ed.
