Election post
I am currently a second year CS student, and the autism society has helped me with social interaction, understanding more about my autism, and let me know the struggles I encounter at university lots of others do. As vice-president of the society, I would look to help new students integrate better with UCL and help inform them about the available support on their courses.
I will also look at establishing more online resources for students who struggle to engage in person. I am currently working on an engineering project with the national autism society, and would like to use the contacts I make from that to engage this society with them more. There are many members of UCL's faculty who are autistic, and I would also look at reaching out to them for talks with us on their experiences in academia and the business world as autistics.
I am currently the Welfare Officer for the society and the neurodivergent students rep in the DSN, and hope to contribute more to the other autistic and neurodivergent students at UCL.
