Curriculum Coordinator

I’m extremely excited to be joining the fantastic team at the Alpine School for Student Leadership. The school offers such a unique opportunity for year 9s to learn through experience, take on real challenges and build lasting relationships, all the while being inspired by the school’s awesome alpine setting.

A healthy curiosity and a passion for taking on challenges has forged the path that has lead me to teaching at the Alpine School. A childhood in the wheat belt of Western Australia and a love for riding my bike led to adventures in Germany learning a new language and culture. My passion for teaching grew with my first appointment teaching English to refugee students from Afghanistan, Iraq and Africa. I have also taught Australian students German, and now look forward to working with students from all over Victoria.

Away from work I have a love for the outdoors that I share with my wife and two young boys. I still love riding one of my many bikes, or in winter a day on skis. Recently I have begun learning to fly a plane, which has been the realisation of a life long dream and a great challenge.

I am really looking forward to working with students at the Alpine School and supporting them on their transformational journey.
