After 25 years of working directly with boys and young men, I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned. My mission is twofold: to give young men the opportunity to find a positive, empowered place in their communities—and to support practitioners in building greater insight into working effectively with them.
My specialty lies in helping young men think critically about masculinity—how certain messages can restrict or diminish them, and how to challenge and break free from negative, limiting ideals. I explore topics such as healthy relationships, sexism, misogyny, and the influence of pornography, creating space for reflection and honest dialogue.
I’m a qualified Youth Worker and practising Family Worker with extensive experience delivering both direct support to young people and professional training across the health, education, and public sectors. My approach to training is interactive and learner-centred, using real-world case studies, role-plays, and group discussions to engage participants and deepen their understanding.
Over the years, I’ve worked with more than 1,500 boys and young men facing a wide range of issues. I’m currently collaborating with a number of schools, trusts, and academies to build meaningful, long-term partnerships.
I hold the professional Youth Work Qualification and a current DBS.
