About Me
Hello, I'm a member of the PatientsLikeMe team and I manage the HIV and ALS communities. I am one of 3 community managers and we are on hand to help you with any questions or issues you might have as you start filling out your profile, using the tools and as you explore the site. It is great to hear from you, we welcome your feedback and ideas, so please keep in touch.

More about me

My role at PLM:



  • Encouraging the sharing of experiences, information and ideas

  • Making suggestions in response to what is shared through the forum but please be aware that we cannot give individual advice

  • Signposting you to relevant tools and alerting to new site resources

  • Responding to your ideas and suggestions in developing the site, and passing your feedback to the team so that we develop intuitive and informative tools

  • Making sure that we pull together and foster community spirit and that the forum is a safe place for discussion and debate


I look forward to helping you, and hope that you find PLM useful in negotiating the ups and downs of your illness experience. There is so much we can gain by learning how others cope in a similar situation.


Background


I joined the ALS/MND team at King's College Hospital, London, UK in 2000 and thoroughly enjoy the Coordinator role within the team. It is a varied role that brings together many different professionals to work together in supporting people living with ALS/MND. I look forward to meeting people through the site and learning what issues are important to individuals and the community as a whole. 


Yes I'm a Londoner for the time being, although I grew up in Scotland. If you message me be sure and factor in the time difference ;-)


In my spare time I love escaping to the countryside and walking, also swimming and chilling out in the garden are my relaxation activities of choice.
