Content & Learning Expert

Accuracy isn't the bar. Fit is.

I lead content and learning strategy at scale — building the editorial systems, quality frameworks, and evidence base that decide whether educational content actually works. That's meant testing AI-generated content against real exam specs, testing quality claims against independent reviewers, and testing textbook-grade learning science against millions of real, self-directed users.

I'm VP of Content at Save My Exams, after 20+ years modernising editorial operations across edtech, higher education, and international publishing — Cambridge University Press, Springer Nature, FutureLearn, and consulting for the World Bank on national curriculum and textbook reform in Armenia and Vietnam along the way. Full history on the CV.
