Diagnosed in 2017 at the age of 44 after a suicidal crisis, I then became an advocate for reducing stigma and widening understanding of ADHD through the charity I founded, ADHD Action.
I then turned my many years experience as a business and mindset coach, mentor and trainer to support others with the condition.
I spearheaded the All Party Parliamentary Group for ADHD, and I am commended in Hansard, the official parliamentary record, for my advocacy and lobbying work.
I am a frequent media spokesperson on ADHD. Recent appearances include BBC Victoria Derbyshire, BBC Radio 4, Radio 5 Live, LBC, The Times, The Mirror, Women's Health, SEN Magazine, Additude Magazine, The Guardian.
As well as working with individuals and businesses, I also train and coach charities, psychiatrists, GPs, teachers and social workers on ADHD.
I am also a co-founder of ADHD Unlocked, a unique community and learning platform for adults with ADHD.
I co-authored the UK scientific consensus paper for females with ADHD published in BMC Psychiatry in 2020.

Currently studying for an MSc in Psychology.
