    I lead engaging and inspiring academic and personal development sessions for young people. Sessions can be in person or recorded and range from 1-1 and classroom works to assemblies with 300 in attendance. This has included in person and recorded delivery. Topics include Mindfulness, Decision-Making, Student Finance, Revision Skills and more. When delivery is recorded I shoot and edit these myself using professional camera, lighting and sound tools. Due to the format, I am able to achieve great results using iMovie and am also able to create custom animation.
