The Person Behind ADHD Garden Fairy

I've always been ambitious.

​

I loved learning, dreamed big, and wanted my education to matter.

​

Studying was hard, but it seemed like that for everyone. Studying became harder, but I assumed that in university, with more time and freedom, that phase would be over.

​

However, my engineering program proved my assumptions wrong. I fell behind, overwhelmed, and hid from the smallest tasks.

​

One day, the pain of shrinking my ambitions trumped my fear of judgement, and I visited a psychiatrist.

​

At twenty, I was diagnosed with ADHD. My self-perception changed, and I was inspired to explore what learning could look like if I worked with my neurodivergent brain.

​

That curiosity became ADHD Garden Fairy, a space where I began sharing my experiences, study strategies, and honest conversations about navigating ambition with ADHD. What started as a personal journey has since grown into a community of neurodivergent students working to turn their potential into proof. This work reflects my mission to help learners with ADHD pursue ambition with more understanding and less self-blame.

​

Now, I am a founder of Kaleido, an organization pushing for inclusive education for neurodivergent learners. I make educational resources, speak publicly, and advocate for students.

​

My vision is simple: a world where ambition and understanding coexist, and every learner can thrive.
