Following my degree in History from the University of Edinburgh, I initially worked for the National Audit Office, before switching to career guidance, something I always had an interest in.
Since I qualified as a career adviser in 1991, I have had the opportunity to work with both young people and adults, and over those 30 years, have built up a wealth of knowledge and expertise in the college/university sectors, job-hunting and CVs, non-traditional pathways and UK qualifications.
I joined Inspiring Futures in 2011, having previously worked for Careers Scotland/SDS and the SCQF
Partnership. As the Area Director for Scotland I had the opportunity to work with many wonderful schools and I am delighted that many of them continue to put their trust in The Career Place.
In many ways my long career within this sector, speaks for itself. I consider myself very fortunate to have found a vocation that I truly enjoy, and to be able to help others, be it their first step into employment, choosing the right university/college course, or advising career changers, is one that I relish!

I qualified as a career guidance professional in 2011. After an initial career in teaching (English and Drama), which included a career guidance remit, I decided to retrain as a careers adviser.
Since qualifying, I have been UK programme co-ordinator for a London 2012 character education initiative and taught numeracy, communication, ICT and employability skills at Fife College. I have worked in education for over 20 years with the last decade dedicated to delivering career guidance in schools across Scotland and England.
