About

After leaving my home in Wales, I earned a B.A. in English and French (hons) from the University of Sussex in 1986.

 

After graduating, I was persuaded to take an M.A. in Northern Renaissance Studies, again at
Sussex, 1988.
 

Fearing further academia, I then took a degree in teaching (P.G.C.E.) and never looked back!

I loved teaching primary school children from when I started to when I took early retirement
in 2024.

In between or before much of these events, I lived In Paris and Sao Paulo, learning the
language and soaking up the culture.

Since retirement, I have continued my love of cafes and cakes but also of my writing. I am
currently writing a science fiction novel exploring the relationship between humanity and AI. I have also been getting messy with paint and plan to exhibit my works next year locally.
