I worked in advertising and as a tutor in computer graphics for many years until I was diagnosed with Bipolar 23 years ago. After a challenging adjustment period I pledged I would use all my experiences as opportunities to thrive and have a life that felt no less than extraordinary.

Today I am an enthusiastic artist, writer, life coach, CPMC and have a 10+ years' experience as a consultant, facilitator and motivational speaker both in the UK and internationally.

I am a long term practitioner of mindfulness & meditation and a certified laughter yoga leader; I am also engaged with the study and practice of Positive Psychology and happiness, in line with my fundamental belief on living a life that is no less than extraordinary; we all have the right to thrive and express ourselves, that is what I am passionate about and what drives me every day.
