Experience
I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals with SEN through a variety of roles. Including becoming an Austim Swim teacher.
Growing up with a severely disabled sister inspired me to pursue this path and instilled in me a strong commitment to advocating for the voices of those with additional needs.
About bit about Me
I love dogs, swimming, musicals, guinea pigs and my tortoise, Truffles. I have 2 children and a very patient husband who supports all my crazy ideas. I love crafting and going on holidays. I am also a swimming teacher and Bath Baby’s practitioner.
My superpowers are that I have ADHD and Dyslexia.
