With expertise in communications, project management, and advocacy, I help develop strategies that align with ethos while driving growth and sustainability, while creating environments where Neurodivergent individuals can thrive.As the Communications Lead for the DfE-funded Internships Work Programme, my leadership contributions include participating in project-board discussions, where my strategic insights have driven more effective decision-making. I work closely with Local Authorities, employers, providers, and SEND stakeholders to align messages that foster partnerships and drive sustainable employment pathways for young people with additional needs.As Co-Director of Neurodivergent Friends in Thanet, I lead business development efforts that secured £55K in funding within our first 13 months. This helped expanding our impact, forming local partnerships and delivering services that support hundreds of Neurodivergent individuals. Our work focuses on fostering self-acceptance, building confidence, and providing ongoing support to the Neurodivergent community in Thanet.My leadership style is grounded in inclusivity, strategic thinking, and an unwavering commitment to delivering outcomes that matter. Whether in a corporate setting or within the community, I prioritise strategic, measurable results and long-term impact, always seeking to uplift and empower systemically oppressed voices.With a background in brand strategy, marketing, and business development, I offer a unique blend of creative vision and strategic execution.
