Adam is a former award-winning West End and touring theatre actor and director, who struggled with his own mental health for much of his career (severe depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations), and had a late diagnosis of autism and ADHD.
After leaving the acting profession, he took a job running a small Arts charity in Covent Garden, London, where he met thousands of people across the country who worked in the industry and were not only struggling financially, but also had underlying, often undiagnosed, mental health issues.
Adam established Wellbeing in the Arts as a result of his own personal experiences of working in the creative sector with mental health issues, the testimonies of the people he had met whilst at the charity, and his extensive research into how employers can best support the mental health and wellbeing of their staff, including freelancers and casual workers.
He is a father to three children and lives with his partner in London.
