I contribute to Wikipedia in a marketing and public relations role. My aim is to use this account to assist the Wikipedia community by suggesting improvements to the articles about the organisations that I represent. Where necessary, I also highlight and report inaccuracies and erroneous information concerning the organisations that I represent.

Please feel free to contact me via my talk page if you have any questions or suggestions about my contributions.

I currently work for an organisation called Global University Systems, which is the umbrella company that encompasses the above two institutions as well as a growing network of member schools and universities. As part of my job, I am currently representing here on Wikipedia is the University Canada West, which is part of the group. I am also currently working on behalf of the London College of Contemporary Arts.

I will always declare my COI should I need to do any work on behalf of any of the other institutions within the group.

Following a conversation with experienced volunteer editors and in light of the guidelines described in WP:PAYTALK, I realised that it would be useful to make it clear that I currently do not get paid based on the number of hours that I spend on Wikipedia. I am a full time employee and, unlike some COI contributors, I don’t bill by the hour. Contributing to Wikipedia is one element of my day job, but not the only one. I will update this information should this situation change in the future.

I am usually available to answer questions on Wikipedia from Monday to Friday, during office hours (UK Time). If you contact me I will try and get back to you as soon as possible.

Yay!
