I have lived locally to Edwinstowe since 2017, when my wife Michaela and I settled here after several years of moving around with my job. We have 7 children with the youngest 2 currently attending St Marys, the older children are either attending the Minster School in Southwell or have grown up and moved away.
I am a Logistician by trade and have worked in various commercial organisations, running warehouses and national transport networks. More recently I am the Director of Logistics within the NHS Supply Chain, which provided me with a unique opportunity to support the NHS throughout the recent Pandemic. This has given me great insights into how complex organisations operate and the vital importance of developing and supporting our children as they grow in their lives.
As a foundation governor, I endeavour to bring my practical knowledge to help alongside my passion to see young people grown and develop into the next generation that will lead us.
