By way of introduction, I am an influential and passionate executive educational leader having 15 years of domestic and 10 years international educational experience (within UAE and KSA) in senior and executive leadership roles in both the British, American and Australian systems, inclusive of A Levels, IBDP & GCDP. During this time, I have successfully operated in various leadership positions in Education Queensland (Australia), before transferring these capabilities to international, culturally and socially diverse management settings in the United Arab Emirates as Head of Junior School at the Australian International School, Principal of Nün Academy, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Executive Principal of His Highness of Sharjah, Sheikh Sultan AlQassimi’s School, the Victorian International School United Arab Emirates & now as Superintendent of six international schools spanning the Western Region of Saudi Arabia for Maarif Education Group, one of the largest Education organisation within KSA. Leading high performing and prestigious schools in the Middle East for the past 10 years of my distinguished career, has been the most rewarding phase of my life to date, both professionally and personally. It is here that I unwaveringly experience how uniquely precious being involved in the delivery of a western education while staying true to the Islamic faith and culture education is in this part of the world. I lead with a vision of connectedness & empowering high performing teams.
