In this week’s episode I sat down with Tilly Griffiths. Tilly is a two-time Stanford graduate from the United Kingdom, recently completing her Master's degree in Communication with an emphasis on data journalism during which she focused on telling impactful, data-driven stories about the disabled experience. As a full-time power wheelchair user living with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, she also dedicated much of her time outside of the classroom to building community on campus for her fellow disabled students. We discuss the cultural shift about disability on college campuses, the balance between being in and being defined by our community, making the decision to never settle or stay put and much, much more.
