Brief Introduction

I joined the LKH team from the Theological Education By Extension College of Southern Africa in September 2009 and I am principal of Hartley Victoria College. I am a Methodist layperson with assorted work experience, as a biology teacher, school counsellor, and lecturer in psychology and the theory and practice of education, which preceded working as a theological education tutor and college principal, first in South Africa and now at Luther King House. I am married to Margaret and we have three adult sons, a graphic designer, a Methodist minister and a professional tennis player.
