Education and Advocacy
At Behind The Smiles, my advocacy is centred around empowering and educating communities about neurodiversity, mental health, and inclusion. As someone deeply passionate about creating a world where neurodivergent individuals are understood and supported, I engage with audiences through various platforms such as public speaking, workshops, podcasts, and written contributions.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of delivering keynote speeches, hosting international webinars, and participating in panel discussions, all aimed at promoting awareness and fostering inclusive environments for neurodivergent individuals, their families, and their support networks.
​​
Through my talks and guest appearances, I share not only the latest research and educational insights but also my personal experiences, offering a unique perspective that resonates with both neurodivergent and neurotypical audiences. Whether I’m speaking to students about the challenges of transitioning to university as a neurodivergent individual or discussing neuroinclusivity in workplaces and educational settings, my goal is to break down barriers and build bridges of understanding.​
In addition to speaking, I contribute articles and guest blog posts to publications, with my writing focusing on the real-life experiences of living with neurodivergence, as well as practical advice for creating inclusive communities. Whether you're looking for an advocate to lead a workshop, a speaker for your next event, or a guest writer to contribute to your publication, I would love to collaborate and continue spreading the message of inclusion and empowerment.
Past Collaborations
I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with a diverse range of organisations, schools, individuals, and media platforms to share my advocacy for neurodiversity. These partnerships have allowed me to connect with audiences across different fields, spreading awareness and promoting inclusion. Here are a few highlights from my previous collaborations.
