Gemma is a 43 year old a global sales and marketing leader with over 22 years’ experience across radio, print, digital, and live events. She spent more than 11 years at Google, where she designed and delivered high-impact global programmes and events for CEOs and senior leaders—operating at the intersection of strategy, culture, and performance.


In 2024 she was diagnosed with multiple invisible disabilities, including autism, bipolar disorder, perimenopause, severe scoliosis, and fibromyalgia. This pivotal moment led her to step away from corporate life and build a business that helps others by sharing her experiences and what she's learned on my journey.


Gemma created Leggacy Inc to help organisations address one of the most overlooked—and costly—gaps in modern workplaces: invisible disability inclusion.


In many workplaces, disability is still unconsciously associated with what is visible. Yet the majority of disabled employees in the UK live with invisible disabilities. Of the estimated 16 million disabled people in the UK, only around 20% have a visibly obvious disability—making invisible disability inclusion a critical leadership and commercial issue, not a niche concern.


Today, Gemma works as a corporate speaker and consultant specialising in DEI and Learning & Development. She partners with organisations to build psychologically safe cultures where people with invisible disabilities can perform at their best.
