Job role

Learning Solutions Specialist

Organisation

STANDARD CHARTERED BANK

About me:

Orginally from the far flung Shetland Isles of Scotland, graduated from Stirling and completed a teaching degree in Edinburgh before working in international schools and a military tertiary college in the UAE. Completed an MSc in HRM & Training from Leicester and having been working in London for Standard Chartered Bank for 4 years.

I'm keen to explore some simple open source tools to use within my area of influence to see if they work within a strict corporate environment. Also want to develop my instructional design skills to improve end to end learning product delivery for my stakeholders.

I enjoy going to the gym, martial arts and eating out with friends.
