Leigh Macneil was born and raised in Massachusetts and still sports the Boston accent. Now a resident of Texas, Leigh works as a sales professional who also coaches and mentors other sales people. His natural draw towards leadership inspired him to want to coach and train people who are a little “different” like him. He has over twenty-two years in the automotive industry and is a lifelong marital artist who fought professionally and has coached and cornered many other fighters to victory. He and Renee have been married for eleven years and have two gorgeous children and two not-as-gorgeous rescue pups. Spaz: The True Story of My Life With ADHD is Leigh’s first book. It is his life story. He believes that his struggles and successes will help others with ADHD to find hope and strength from their unique abilities.
Renee Macneil is a native Vermonter and holds a Master’s in English from the University of Vermont. She was a public school English teacher for thirteen years before she and Leigh relocated to Lantana, Texas. After witnessing first hand the lack of understanding and knowledge about ADHD she was inspired to take courses and training on ADHD and ADHD Coaching. Now she offers workshops for parents and educators as well as individual coaching for anyone affected by ADHD through her company, ADHD Coach For Life. Spaz: The True Story of My Life With ADHD is her first book, but not her last. When she is not writing Renee is training for the Boston Marathon and parenting two very sweet, high-energy, strong-willed little girls.
