Head of Secondary & Physics & Geography Teacher
I have worked in education since leaving university and have taught in UK State and Independent schools. I have moved to BISB from Kuala Lumpur where I was Head of Secondary in a large International School in the city.
As an educational leader in school I strive to ensure that students have outstanding learning opportunities during lessons, a plethora of enrichment activities outside the classroom and above all else the opportunity to be part of a caring, nurturing school community.

Deputy Head of Secondary
I studied BSc (Hons) Geography at the University of Leeds, and completed my teacher training through the University of Greenwich, UK. I worked as the Head of Geography and Geology for 3 years at an all-boys school in the UK before moving over to Slovakia in 2013. I love the international mindedness of working in an international school, and being part of the local community is also important to me because my husband is Slovak.

I then spent 3 years working for a multinational environmental engineering consultancy before deciding to change vocation and become a teacher. I completed my PGCE at the University of Bristol in 2004, and worked at a large comprehensive school in Wiltshire for 3 years, before deciding to go into International Teaching. For the last decade I have had the great privilege to teach in Thailand, Nepal, and Brunei, as both a Chemistry teacher and a Head of Department, and I am now very excited to be part of the Science Department at BISB as Head of Chemistry.

I was born and raised in New Jersey and spent many years in North Carolina before moving to Oxfordshire, England. After years of working in the art, hospitality and construction industries, I found my love of teaching. I have had the pleasure of working with students and other educators in the US, UK and Europe. I have taught languages and various Social Science courses as well as had educational leadership roles such as Head of Department, Head of Learning and Head of Upper School.

After completing my degree in English Studies at the University of Strathclyde, I taught English as a second language in Gdansk, Poland for a year.

In 2012 we decided to enter the international scene and I moved with my family to China take up the position of SENCO at Nord Anglia’s British International School Shanghai, Puxi. Having thoroughly enjoyed the 2 years spent in Shanghai, I am now delighted I could return to Europe for the exciting role of Head of A1 Languages at BISB.
