I am a qualified teacher assistant with a special interest in ADHD. I specialise in working with students, young adults, parents and educators.
When one of my children was diagnosed with ADHD I noticed there was an extreme lack of understanding around it. I experienced first-hand the lack of easily accessible, specialised knowledge around ADHD. This ignited my passion for ADHD and marked the start of a journey that lead me to find the ADD Coaching Academy in New York. I am now a qualified and certified ADHD Coach (AACC).
I have worked in many different Personal Assistant and Office Management roles throughout my career and this unforeseen new path is a natural progression I am thrilled to have found. My mission is to empower every person touched by ADHD to live their best life.
I live in Christchurch, New Zealand with my husband, three children and fur baby.
