With over a decade in the international education sector, I am honoured to take on the role of Head of Global Research. My journey with the team began in 2013, contributing to the Reports and Field Research teams until 2018. Subsequently, I gained diverse experiences, first in the marketing department of a renowned international school and then as a key member of the founding team at an innovative international school in Thailand, where I held the position of Director of Admissions and Marketing. Re-joining ISC Research feels like a full-circle moment in my career, allowing me to apply my cumulative experiences and insights.
