“I’m a Music Industry Professional with ADHD and Dyslexia. I Say It’s Time to Make Space for Neurodiversity.”

to accomplish and create more than I ever dreamed possible. In stark contrast to the more methodical thinking of my colleagues, my intersecting conditions empower me to flick quickly between thoughts and pursue new, exciting ideas.

The out-of-the-box thinking of my ADHD, dyslexic brain is on full display when I’m moderating big conference panels. Truth be told, I often don’t know what I’m going to say until I say it, which is kind of terrifying and exhilarating all at once, especially when faced with a talented, diverse group of panelists and hundreds of audience members. I know it’s a noradrenaline-ADHD mix that helps me thrive in these spaces..

Here, I stop “thinking” about mixing and often reach a flow state, where I’m in touch with the crowd and music and become totally absorbed in the moment. Even away from the DJ decks, facilitates incredible states of uninterrupted flow, which can produce work of great quality — whether that’s planning a podcast, delivering a panel, or being deep in conversation with a fellow industry professional at a music conference in some far-flung location.My dyslexia and ADHD yield a wealth of benefits — and mistakes. Last year, for example, I spent six months planning a high-level meeting with a leading electronic festival promoter in Barcelona.

Chief among my struggles has been managing mental noise. Focus doesn’t tend to come easily when I’m being constantly bombarded by internal and external distractions; difficulties with reading and writing add to the pressure.
