Fish in Trees

"Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it is stupid"

Einstein said that, and I think he was really onto something. 

And I think it's the perfect metaphor for neurodiversity. For being different (not less), and just needing the right conditions to shine.

In 2024 I ended up in the hospital from severe stress and burnout. Clearly I was not in good conditions!

In 2025 I began building something - to make things better for everyone.


"Nerdy in the Best Way"

My passion is public speaking (and educating), but the events industry is a minefield for people with sensory issues (like me).

Have you ever felt over-stimulated in public? We can't focus, we can't connect, and thus we can't be our best selves.

I'm a big nerd with a background in music production, and a special interest in learning how things work.

Smoosh em' together and what do you get? A calibration system for sensory environments! 

Now I write about and advocate for more sensory accessibility - so we can actually connect, learn, and grow together.
