As with many OU tutors I have a mixed background in business and education, initially working for two electronic companies in marketing then financial sales for a national bank. I then worked for a number of universities teaching marketing and small business planning and in that latter role reached out to a local chamber of commerce eventually becoming its president for 3.5 years (voluntary role). I have been with the OU since 2007 and now teach on B100, B302, B327 and B873 (MBA).
I enjoy working for the OU Business School because it has such a great reputation with its triple accreditation and quality materials but more importantly because supporting students on their professional journey is very rewarding especially as they have a great wealth of experience that we can all share.
In my recent spare time I decided to become an OU student and graduated with a Certificate in Astronomy and Physical Sciences partly because the night sky is so fascinating and partly because I wanted to have a stronger sense of being an OU student.
