Governor Profile

Head of Food Land and Agribusiness Department

Responsible for an academic department that teaches food, business, agribusiness, land and property management across multiple undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. 

With sustainability underpinning all of our courses, we focus on developing students to manage the challenges of the post-COVID world by facilitating learning around all facets of sustainability facing food land and business porfessionals.

Accreditation for RICS (Royal Institution of Rural Surveyors) and ILM (Institute of Leadership and Management) underpin the professional framework for all of the teaching delivered by my team.  Developing the entrepreneurial skillset of our students and supporting them beyond graduation is one of my personal 'missions'.
