Pleased to share that my chapter on Neurodivergent Parents in Higher Education has been published in Neurodivergent Education and Lifelong Learning. As a neurodivergent parent navigating academia myself, this contribution is especially meaningful. #Neurodivergent #HigherEducation #Research

It was a privilege to share my work at the Autism Europe International Congress in Dublin. Link to presentation: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

At this dark time of year, I think back to one of my fabulous solo walking trips - this one along the UK’s Jurassic Coast along the South West Coast Path. Just me, my backpack, the path and the sea 🥰.

I look forward to presenting my research at the "Memory and Trauma" International Conference
7-8 December 2024. The event is
organised by London Centre for Interdisciplinary Research. memory.lcir.co.uk/memory-traum....

I’m a mix of these two emotions today. Neurodivergent overwhelm and sliding into burnout…

This little companion makes work a bit easier. Cats are definitely my spirit animals.

Love being part of my little Neurospicy family. We all have different traits and profiles but love and accept each other with our individual quirks.

Current emerging themes of my PhD research.
