As an expat child, Ged grew up in Zambia and Liberia. Her experiences there allowed her to consider different perspectives and sparked her love of the natural world. She always had a random collection of stones, sticks, feathers and seeds in her pockets and still does to this day. She loves to travel and became a travel agent so that she could continue to get to know the world. Later, when her son was born and had some additional learning needs, she discovered the inequalities in the education system. Disheartened by some teachers and encouraged by others, she decided to become an educator. She wanted to become someone who could provide a safe, loving, equitable and inspiring space for any learner. As an international educator who has worked in the UK, China, Brunei, Singapore, France and now Germany, she continues to work on this goal every day of the week. Her master’s in education for sustainability was provoked by her first experience with Compass Education and she is excited to be able to share her enthusiasm for these tools with other educators to help us develop passionate and thoughtful citizens.
