ABOUT LORIEN

Hey! I’m Lorien, your Accessibility Officer for 2025! 

I am multiply-disabled, navigating autism, narcolepsy, and mobility issues due to chronic pain. I am excited to be able to bring my lived experience as a disabled person and activist to this role.

I am an environmental science student undertaking an Honours project in the field of zooarcheology (studying animal bones)! I dabble in many creative hobbies and enjoy birdwatching and gardening when my body allows. If you would like to talk about any ideas, questions or concerns you may have, or want to share cute animal pictures, please don’t hesitate to contact me!
