| Biography | Graduated from the University of Lincoln in 2011 with a BSc, and pretty much stayed put to try improve the staff and student experience from merely ‘good’ to ‘amazingly good’. I spend most of my time advocating various technological solutions to problems, doodling excessively complex flowcharts on the office whiteboard, and looking for new things to try out. Outside of work I am a real ale fan, have a passion for both cooking and consuming good food, enjoy kicking back and playing the odd video game or two, have been known to go camping in various extremes of weather, sometimes throw myself down a river in a kayak and have two pet rats. |
