Background: I was a teacher and have over 24 years’ experience in the education and sensory world. I love engulfing myself in courses and experiences to ensure Learning SPACE are supporting families and organisations as best as possible. The most recent qualification is a post graduate certificate in Autism with Middletown Center for Autism and University of Limerick. This drive comes from supporting my sister who is the light of my life and has Sotos Syndrome. At the age of 38 I was diagnosed with Autism which has made a huge impact on my life. I began to understand myself more, be less hard on myself and build strategies to take off the mask. The impact of those around me having greater understanding and empathy changed everything.
Passionate about: Empowering and enabling children so that no matter what their needs are, they feel valued, resilient and happy.
Fun Fact: I love being in, on or beside the sea as it gives me such a sense of relaxation and peace.
