Founder of Outdoortopia & Global Education Influencer at Education Influence
I believe education is the key to guiding humanity and our planet towards a bright, sustainable future.
​
I founded Outdoortopia in 2017 as a blog and online community for empowering teachers and other educators to get children outside the classroom, and grow into adaptable, open-minded and environmentally responsible human beings.
​
"Together we can cultivate the changemakers of the future!"
​​
I have a MSc in Science of the Environment and a BSc in Geography from UK universities. I am currently undertaking a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) via distance learning.
​
For over a decade, I have facilitated outdoor and experiential education programs worldwide for children of diverse ages, abilities, cultural identities, special educational needs and life circumstances in a wide range of environments.
​
I have developed expertise in the following educational disciplines/areas of competence including:
​​​
-
Youth Leadership & Empowerment
-
Outdoor Skills & Competencies
-
Adventure & Expeditionary Learning
-
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)
-
Global Citizenship Education (GCED)
-
Environmental Field Studies/Citizen Science
-

Now it's time to continue to grow, exchange knowledge and ideas, and connect with outdoor and experiential educators worldwide!
