Profile
I studied Professional Bakery Levels 2 & 3 at University College Birmingham, and during this time I undertook work placements at a selection of bakeries in the West Midlands and in France. Following on from this, I completed Levels 4, 5 and 6 of the Bakery and Patisserie Technology degree.
On completion of my degree, i was nominated and awarded Freedom of the Worshipful Company of Bakers for my efforts and attitude towards the industry as well as achieving top grades. During lockdown, I set up my own business from home attending farmers markets, exhibition shows and providing local businesses with bread and cakes.
I joined University College Birmingham in 2021 as a bakery lecturer, teaching further education students at Level 3, and higher education students at Levels 4, 5 and 6.
