About
I am a compassionate, supportive, and practical professional with hands-on experience managing complex physical and mental health needs. Trained in crisis intervention, BSL, child psychology, and professional resilience, my focus remains dedicated to helping vulnerable individuals through emotional turmoil to regain their independence and sense of purpose. This background is further strengthened by a distinct creative skillset in narrative design and media production, utilising powerful storytelling to advocate for and raise awareness of critical mental health themes.
