Fae completed her BSc in Psychology at the University of Bath and has worked as a support worker and learning support assistant with autistic adults, teenagers, and children. During her undergraduate studies, she completed a placement year at CRAE, which not only sparked her passion for autism research but also led to a deeper understanding of her own neurodivergence.
Alongside her studies, Fae worked on the Autism in Court project within the Centre for Applied Autism Research at the University of Bath, exploring the experiences of autistic people within the justice system. Upon graduating, she was awarded the Helen Haste Prize for an essay examining the misogynistic ableism faced by autistic women and girls, a piece she would be happy to share upon request.
Fae is currently pursuing an MSc in Social Research Methods and Data Science at UCL and is delighted to return to CRAE to work on the EXAMINE project.
In her free time, she enjoys reading.
