‘With over 30 years of experience in education and careers guidance, I am passionate about helping people overcome barriers and achieve their goals. As an ALN Careers Adviser for Careers Wales, I worked closely with pupils, families, and schools/colleges across Neath, Port Talbot, Swansea, and Powys, providing impartial advice, guidance, and tailored support. In my most recent role, I taught employability skills to young people, preparing them for employment, training, or college. I am excited to join Team Teulu because I believe that building strong, trusting relationships between pupils, families, and schools is essential to delivering the best possible support and opportunities for their future’.
