I sometimes like to say that, in my life, I’ve been everything from a postman to a policeman. And I have!

Having spent many valuable years in the electronics and other industries, I decided to engage in some further education.

After studying at university and other institutions, I gained several qualifications and a detailed appreciation of the way Secondary and Tertiary education works. My experience as a student counsellor at some large universities also gives me an insight into the problems students can face as well as their solutions.

As part of my extra studies, I also completed an NLP Practitioner Certificate, a Mental Health First Aid Certificate, and a Mindfulness (Train the Trainer) Certificate, as well as various certificates in OH&S and Workplace Procedures.

This wide experience gives me a great insight into ways of dealing with problems and my skill-set enables me to address both academic and psychological/emotional issues.
