BIOGRAPHY

Personal Profile

20+ years in Web/Software Development, Digital Strategy and UX. In 2012 I recognised an opportunity for tech education to both serve UK industry better and simultaneously break down employment barriers for talented individuals from society’s most underrepresented groups.
We started by creating the UK’s first industry-led digital apprenticeship and now, as founder of The Coders Guild, I head up a mastermind team of professional developer trainers, business owners and community leaders who are pushing the possibilities of tech education in the UK.

Services Offered

Short one and two day workshops, 5 day courses, Skills Bootcamps and Apprenticeships in Web and Software Development, Software Testing, UX, Project management and Leadership.
