Development Manager and Formation Group Tutor


Joined in 2015

When I joined the college in 2015 as an Academic Administrator, I was not sure what I wanted to do as a career. The team culture and possibilities to learn and grow at SPTC and HTB have been extraordinary. I was supported by SPTC as I completed a Master’s degree part-time alongside work. I’ve also had the privilege of attending conferences and courses that have grown my skillset and allowed me to learn in the workplace environment. There have been many opportunities to learn new skills and work on different projects, such as running School of Theology and teaching on introductory theology programmes at the college, that have helped me hone my skill set and vocation.

I am the Course Lead on the School of Theology which is an introductory course to theology and I love any teaching I get to do, as well as chatting and meeting our wonderful students each term.

I love working for an organisation where staff can meet, pray, and worship together. HTB and SPTC have a big vision to impact the church and society with the love of Jesus, and I love that my job is to play my part in that vision.
