What do you do for a living?
I juggle four merging careers. I’m a children’s writer, an autism employment trainer, I make heritage accessible for autistic families such as museums and galleries and events, and now I’m a publisher that pulls it all together under Fractal Spectrum Magazine.
What does that mean day-to-day?
I will be bid-writing grants, coordinating events and projects, writing and reading articles, and writing stories.
I’ll also be working with my community to learn what they need to support them in their careers and accessing environments like museums, galleries, and events.
What do you love about magazines?
I love that magazines help me with my short attention span. I find writing for a long time like a 50k-word book is not as much fun as writing a 700-word article about my favourite things. Then once the idea that once lived in my head is in my hands, it just feels like giving birth all over again!
I especially love that I can use it to platform autistic voices in the workplace. It’s something that came from a need and I am excited that this is a platform that could evolve as more and more organisations support autistic employees over time.
Tell us one thing not many people know about you?
I’m left handed.
Where can we connect with you?
I’m on all the socials but mostly on LinkedIn.
