It was wonderful to have the chance to interview Navya about her experiences related to neurodiversity, employment, resilience, obtaining a diagnosis, culture, and various aspects of identity more generally. I certainly learned a lot from the interview personally and greatly appreciated hearing her perspective.

More information about Navya can be found at her website and/or her linkedin-- she said that she welcomes any questions/comments/people looking to connect!
