Who I Am
I have been developing my experience of Google Apps Script since 2018 through this blog 'The Gift of Script', which started as a personal learning journey and soon grew to a worldwide resource contributing to the wider Google developer community.
Through my blog I share tools and resources along with YouTube support videos, to help and encourage others to grow their own skills. I also contribute to a number of online forums which has led to a growing portfolio of guest speaker opportunities.
Working at the University of York I provide user support and training across the range of Google Workspace Apps. My job also involves continuous service improvements with a specialisation in bulk automation, providing a significant number of years’ worth of time saved vs manual processes.
