Accommodations Support for High-Stakes Exams
Empowering high-achieving professionals and students to access the support they deserve—without shame, confusion, or self-doubt.
Why This Service Exists
Standardized testing isn’t just a measure of what you know. It’s a measure of how well your brain and body perform under pressure, surveillance, and institutional indifference.
For neurodivergent and disabled professionals—especially those who’ve been high-functioning or undiagnosed for most of their academic lives—these environments can be devastating. You know the material. But when the clock starts, your symptoms spiral: ADHD paralysis, panic attacks, memory blanks, sensory overwhelm.
And when you ask for help?
You’re often met with skepticism, bureaucracy, or silence.
This service was built to change that.
It exists because I’ve lived it—navigated it—and helped others do the same.
Not as a lawyer. Not as a system insider. But as a medical student, public health advocate, and late-diagnosed adult who understands how deeply accommodations are misunderstood—and how powerful they can be when done right.

The Deeper Goal
-
You’ve spent your whole life performing beyond expectations, while masking symptoms, bypassing burnout, and questioning if you’re “disabled enough” to ask for help.
-
This service isn’t just about getting extended time.
-
It’s about permitting yourself to stop pretending.
-
You don’t need to be broken to need support.
-
You don’t need to be exceptional to deserve ease.
-
And you don’t need to do it alone anymore.
Legal Clarity
-
This service does not provide legal advice or formal representation.
-
It is an educational, strategic, and advocacy-focused support offering.
-
If legal consultation is needed, I will gladly refer you to trusted disability rights attorneys or accommodations specialists.
