Meet the TASIS England Admissions Team

Joshua Clark - Director of Enrollment and Marketing

Where are you from?
I grew up in Arizona, but finished high school in Indiana. After university, my wife and I started working at a boarding school in Arizona. Following Arizona we worked at a school in Maine, then in Hawaii before coming here to England

Why TASIS England?
I have known about TASIS England for a few years now because I would travel internationally with other admission officers, including someone from TASIS England. I was intrigued by the opportunities available to students on campus, and the rich cultural experiences being located near London along with easy access to the rest of Europe. When I visited the campus, I was impressed by how kind and outgoing the students were, and the adults were friendly and cared deeply about the school. I wanted to be a part of TASIS because I am excited by the direction and momentum of the school in helping young people reach their own full potential.

Nellie Bailey - Senior Associate Director of Enrollment Management and Family Transitions

Where are you from?
I was lucky enough to grow up on an active apple farm in central Massachusetts while spending time enjoying summers in Maine and winters skiing in New Hampshire. I have also taught and lived in Connecticut and New York before moving to England.

Why TASIS England?
In 2001, I came to TASIS The American International School in England to join the second grade team. When I first spoke with people at TASIS I felt so comfortable and had that “gut” feeling that it was the right place for me professionally. Once I stepped onto the campus, exhausted after flying all night, I knew it was a place I wanted to be. As an educator, witnessing the joy of learning that was evident in the classrooms was fantastic and hearing the positive feelings amongst the teachers, parents and staff made it even more convincing that I should make the move to England.

Matt Craig - Senior Associate Director of Marketing, Enrollment, and Development

Where are you from?
I grew up internationally, living in Jamaica, France, and Spain before returning to the United Kingdom for my secondary schooling and university education. I’ve lived here ever since and now reside in Kingston upon Thames with my family, where we are actively engaged in the Surrey community.

Why TASIS England?
TASIS has been on my radar throughout my entire career, and I’ve known some of the team for more than a decade. What has always stood out to me is the School’s warm, knowledgeable, and exceptionally dedicated community. Having worked in other international schools and the education technology sector, and as someone with a global background who understands the challenges families face when transitioning to a new country, I always viewed TASIS England as my dream school. From my first day, I’ve felt genuinely welcomed and supported, and I’m truly grateful to be part of such a positive and inspiring community.

Katie Sharpe - Associate Director of Day Enrollment and Corporate Relations

Where are you from?
I was born in a village near Sheffield in South Yorkshire and met my husband while at the University of Birmingham. We moved to Surrey in 2010 which is now also home to our two young daughters.

Why TASIS England?
I've always worked in an international education setting and enjoy the environment that it brings. Before joining TASIS, I spent ten years at the University of Surrey, traveling overseas to guide international students through the application journey. I have a real passion for supporting students and their families and sharing the benefits of an international education community. I find that TASIS England has a real community feel and is an extremely welcoming, inclusive place to work and study.

Jennifer Yeadon - Summer Admissions Officer

Where are you from?
I was born in Cape Town, South Africa, and have lived in the beautiful South Peninsula for most of my adult life until I moved to the UK in August 2020. I love living here, settling in well, and am delighted to call it home.

Why TASIS England?
As soon as I heard about TASIS England and did my research, I knew this was where I wanted to be. I love the fact that there are so many nationalities, and everybody is accepted for who they are. The buildings and grounds are stunning, and the people are all so welcoming and friendly that I immediately felt at home. I am very honored to be part of the TASIS community.

Jenny Smolka - Admissions Administrator - Visas & Immigration Coordinator

Where are you from?
I grew up and lived in Bisley, Surrey with my parents and older brother. I then met my husband who I married in 2018 (I was lucky enough to have two wedding celebrations; one here in the UK and one in Poland where my husband and his family are from). We now live in Sandhurst, Berkshire with our little Shih Tzu pup, Tony, who became part of our family in 2023.

Why TASIS England?
As soon as I walked onto campus, I knew this was where I wanted to start a new chapter in my life. The grounds and buildings are beautiful - as well as the wonderful people that I now get to see and work with every day. I love that our students are from all over the world, that there are so many cultures all under one roof, and that we are able to support all of the families with their journeys to TASIS. My background is in Art and Design and I have a love for craft and regularly attend local craft fairs. My first job was working in an Art Gallery and Museum, and then I worked at the University of Surrey before coming to TASIS. I have had the pleasure of working here since 2019.
