Biography

I was born and grew up in South London and still live south of the river. I studied history at university and taught at secondary level for many years, leading innumerable school visits before turning to the City of London. I hope to bring history to life for people of all ages! I am passionate about gardening and so take great pleasure in the City's fine open spaces.
