I am an IT professional with an ever increasing focus on web development, with a particular interest in education due to my day job as an IT Manager at a large school in Birmingham, and my role as a Governor of a school in Worcestershire.

I currently run a number of websites (find out more in my portfolio) for a number of different people, and my own venture - theEducationCollective, an online community service to help professional bodies of people communicate securely and efficiently.

This is born out of work I have been doing with the Birmingham Bursars Group and the Midland Bursar Group for the last few years, working with them to develop a website to allow their members to communicate more effectively.

My work with these groups has led to many requests from other similar groups wanting a similar solution, and to keep costs down for these groups I decided to come up with a subscription based service that can grow with the groups without the need for huge financial outlay up front.

Thank you for stopping by.
