“My time at BGS was life changing. When I joined as an 11-year old scholarship kid from a council estate I thought I knew everything; I quickly realised that I didn’t. I made some lasting friendships and we still regularly get together 45 years later.

I’ve had a varied and rewarding international career as a Chartered Engineer. I have developed and managed projects in the USA and across Europe and was the first non-US person to be accredited by the US Department of Energy as a Data Center Energy Practitioner (DCEP).

BGS opened my eyes to a world of possibilities; it taught me how, not what, to learn. I loved every minute.”
