Joined Atlas Obscura in 2017

Hi, I'm Richard! I specialise in researching, developing and implementing learning and educational technologies, e-learning and digital information systems around the globe. I'm currently working as the Learning Technologies Advisor to Health Education England as well as running my own ed-tech company, Learnal. Before that I was a marine biologist and ran the hugely popular World of Kitsch - a virtual museum of all things kitschy. I now run the Art Trail Project, a website dedicated to mapping all the art trails around the globe.
