Researching how people learn.
Reimagining how education responds.

Researcher, educator and consultant specialising in neurodiversity, literacy and inclusive education.

My Approach

My work begins by listening to people whose experiences are too often overlooked. Through research, teaching and consultancy, I explore how education shapes identity, opportunity and belonging, with a particular focus on neurodiversity, literacy and inclusive practice.

I bring together rigorous research and lived experience to question established systems and turn evidence into meaningful change. My aim is to help create education that recognises difference, responds to learners and enables more people to thrive.

  • “I never thought that I would pass, but now I have a degree. Jennifer showed me that my neurodiversity doesn't mean I am 'not academic,' I just think differently.

Research, education and creativity.

My work brings together educational research, inclusive practice and creative writing. From investigating literacy and neurodiversity to supporting educators and creating stories for children, each strand is connected by curiosity, compassion and a commitment to making a meaningful difference.
