As an experienced healthcare professional specialising in mental health nursing and with a deep passion for education, I am dedicated to supporting students in achieving academic and personal success.
With over 14 years of hands-on experience in healthcare, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge to my mentoring sessions. Alongside my roles as a life coach and counsellor, my primary focus lies in helping students succeed. Currently, I work as a Professional Mentor at the University of East London, guiding students through career planning, skill development and confidence-building. I have a strong track record of helping students create meaningful connections between their academic pursuits and career aspirations, empowering them to realize their full potential.
In addition, as a Specialist Mentor for Mental Health and Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC) in Higher Education, I work closely with students to address their unique challenges and leverage their strengths. My support emphasizes fostering independence, resilience and academic success while contributing to a more inclusive and understanding educational environment.

Having been a student myself, I understand firsthand how challenging the journey can be. From managing deadlines and personal challenges, it’s not always easy—but with the right support, it’s possible to thrive. That’s why I’m passionate about helping students like you navigate these challenges and turn them into opportunities for growth. Whether it’s managing anxiety, building self-confidence, tackling academic essays, or balancing everything you have going on in your life, I’m here to help. My goal is to help you feel confident, capable and ready to succeed—both in your studies and beyond. Let's make it happen.
