Excitable, Curious, Dependable
I’m an autistic lawyer and I’m committed to ensuring that autistic people are properly supported, meaningfully included, and fully able to exercise their rights within the legal system and beyond.
I was diagnosed as autistic during my legal studies, which brought my focus to the systemic barriers autistic people face and shaped the direction of my legal advocacy. Since then, I’ve used my legal skills to advance autism advocacy, including in my work as a Director on the AutismBC Board, where I help guide governance and support the organization on legal and policy-related matters.
Outside of my legal and advocacy work, I enjoy spending time in local autistic community spaces, including those from AutismBC Meets. (Come say hi!)
I can draw a circle with one hand and a square in the other at the same time.
