Author Biography

Suzy is a uniquely skilled professional with a broad suite of communication abilities, shaped by extensive experience across diverse sectors.

Her corporate expertise was honed in complex logistics, pharmaceutical companies, and UK government agencies, giving her a deep understanding of organisational dynamics, strategic messaging, and stakeholder engagement. She also thrived in smaller businesses, where she developed agility, entrepreneurial thinking, and the capacity to deliver high-impact results. In the early 2000s, Suzy launched her own consultancy as a strategic communications professional and solopreneur, combining creativity with practical business acumen.

In 2018, Suzy’s personal journey led her to a new focus: education and neurodiversity. Following her son’s diagnosis with autism and ADHD, she founded the HappyInSchoolProject, a platform dedicated to supporting schools, parents, and children with additional learning needs. The organisation grew in scope and impact, and in 2025 it was formally incorporated as a Community Interest Company (CIC). Drawing on her lived experience, Suzy brings a deeply empathetic approach to education, blending personal insight with evidence-based strategies. She is a certified Mental Health First Aider and trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, equipping her with tools to support children, families, and educators alike.
