I Started offending at 8 years of age and was a persistent offender for a lot of my young adult life. I have been to prison a few times during my life.

 

I am a leading expert in my field.

​

From a young age, I have had a life long fascination for behaviour. 

​​

I ran trauma resilience programs in the community for 20 years and have worked in front line job roles on at risk teams, in the homeless sector and in the drug services. ​​​

​​​

After studying how the substance misuse recovery model worked, I wanted to build a recovery  program for past childhood trauma.

 ​​

In 2019 the Lion theory was created and with it a framework that actually worked. The same year; my work went in front of the Youth and Crime committee, at the House of Commons. The feedback was amazing.

 

Finally after years of studying and a lifelong quest to find something that actually had an impact on the trauma....

​​

The Lion Program was born.

​

​In memory of all those butterflies who got their wings too early.
