Feeling very proud of my university today. Today we announced the recipients of our Autism Inclusion Awards - non/autistic people nominated by our autistic staff and students for providing an inclusive university experience. And the winners were….
A huge thank you to @qantas staff on QF471 today. I arrived at the gate just as the flight was closing - massively stressed after my Uber broke down in the tunnel billowing smoke. They calmed me down, carried my bag, and got me a bottle of water. Now that’s #CustomerService
