About me

I am a teacher, author and editor of a wide range of published resources for A-level and GCSE geography. I have also created award-winning, online content for younger students. I enjoy writing geography resources for students and teachers and supporting teachers improving their teaching practice.

I am currently working with Oak Academy, the Geographical Association and tutor2u. This academic year, I am a Fawcett Fellow at the IoE. @geogriffi.bsky.social
