Our Story
Created to be the space ADHDers can turn to for support, real stories, and a sense of community.
Meet the founder
Hi, I'm Deniz
I’m a late-diagnosed ADHDer and have been a neurodiversity advocate and educator since 2021. My background is in Science and Engineering. Science communication is at the heart of what I do here at ADHD Hyperfocus.
It’s tough to find your purpose when you’re interested in a thousand things all at once. I often rely on input from the online ADHD community when creating supportive products and content. I share my work through @dt.perry (science, humor and life) and @adhd_hyperfocus_ (career and success) on Instagram.
I, along with my awesome contributors, dedicated months and years building this website and our online course catalogue. Getting the science right is important to me, as is presenting a well designed experience for ADHD brains. My contributors James and Ben have the absolute right backgrounds to help me translate complex science into easily digestible content, making it accessible to all on social media. Our course catalogue is built to help adult ADHDers with more focused content, delivering information and actionable direction.
I hope you find that my passion for bridging the gap between science and everyday life is reflected in my work. I will continue to support and uplift our community on the journey towards fulfillment and success.
You're not alone, and neither am I
Meet our contributors
Hyperfocus is growing. These ADHDers and experts add their own knowledge and lived experience to what you’ll find here.
Ben
UX/UI designer · Stimulating Media
Ben Ambalong is behind anything that looks delightful and works well. He is an expert in UX UI design and he is the proud owner of a design studio called Stimulating Media.
Deniz and Ben have been colleagues and friends for over a decade. A story that started in branding a futurelab concept, has grown into collaborating often and creating products together that have been in use for 10+ years in biotech.
Ben is an integral part of what we’re building at ADHD Hyperfocus. If things look and feel effortless it’s because a designer has put in the effort and thought through how best to make things human centered in experience.
James
Science reviewer · Biology & neurobiology
James Perry is an adult ADHDer who was diagnosed in high school. He is a science and technology enthusiast. His background is in Biology with a neurobiology concentration. Currently he works in IT, because on top of biological systems, he was also interested in the digital realm.
As the last names would give the connection away, Deniz and James built a sweet little ADHD family together and are each other’s best support when things get rough.
For the ADHD community, James is the one who makes sure the science is accurately represented in our science-focused courses. He tirelessly reviews research findings, checks citations, and digs into the original publications. Along the way, he’s even uncovered some real-life scientific drama involving publication retractions and questionable data practices.
Perhaps we’ll tell those stories someday!
