Originally from Glasgow, Stephan moved to London in 2010, and studied music at Trinity Laban in Greenwich. He went on to work in the tech sector in London, gaining broad experience in digital marketing, software engineering, and product management, and is now working in the renewable energy sector.

He still plays the piano and retains a strong interest in pedagogy and in learning in general: both in what makes for truly effective learning, and in how we can broaden access to high-quality education. A believer in lifelong learning, he continues to study languages in his free time, and maths and statistics with the Open University.
