Hello! Thank you for visiting my site.

I am a speech and language therapist with over 20 years experience working in NHS, academic and third sector organisations.

I completed my Stroke Association funded  PhD at University College London in 2024, called “Communication partner training, cognition and aphasia.”

I believe that life does not have to stop when a communication difficulty starts, but that this requires adaptation to a communication difficulty by everyone, as well as the pursuit of “getting better”.

Outside work I spend my time with my family and friend, searching out good coffee and searching for our two cats which are always getting lost somewhere!
