STEM Leader in Attitude 101!

I’m incredibly proud to have been named a category leader in the STEM list of Attitude 101, recognising 101 influential LGBTQ+ figures across sectors.

This recognition means a lot, both personally and professionally. It’s a reminder of how far we’ve come and how important it is to keep creating inclusive, psychologically safe spaces across STEM and engineering.

Thanks to everyone who’s supported my journey so far!

Tomorrow’s Engineers LIVE

Earlier this week, I attended Tomorrow’s Engineers LIVE in London, organised by EngineeringUK, and it gave me plenty to think about.

With lightning talks, apprentice panels, an unconference session, and meaningful conversations on social value and gender pathways, it was an energising day of learning and reflection.

Hats off to the team at EngineeringUK for a fantastic event. Lots of fresh ideas brewing for EqualEngineers…

This Week on The SAFE Leader Podcast

This week on The SAFE Leader Podcast, I’m joined by Sarah Ischer, Senior Director of Expertise at the What Works Institute and a powerful advocate for human-centred safety.

Early in her career, a hydrochloric acid pipe rupture changed everything and set Sarah on a path to transform how organisations think about health and safety.

In this deeply personal episode, we explore:

• Why safety is not common sense

• How metrics often miss the humans behind them

• The difference between doing safety to people versus with people

• What it means to build trust and inclusion into every system

Let’s Connect!

I love helping organisations where the angle I take with the work I do might help in someway have you make traction in your culture.

Feel free to get in touch here.

Stay SAFE!
