 Weekly Opinion column at the Daily Cal
My very first task on the staff of The Daily Californian was as Opinion Columnist.

My weekly column "The Person Inside" (total of 10 articles) was published on Thursdays both in Print and Online and spoke of my lived experiences with Autism.


A full list of the articles in this series is below.
0. Introducing the Daily Cal Opinion Columnists
In this introductory video, the other opinion columnists and I explain what our columns are about. My introduction starts at 3:19

3. Sensory Walkabout
https://www.dailycal.org/2018/03/01/sensory-walkabout/
In my 3rd column, I write about the way many of us autistics experience our environment in quite a different and quite an 'extra-ordinary' way.



4. Women in my Life

In my 4th column, A tribute to the women in my life who gave that extra helping hand.

9. O Body, Where Art Thou?
https://www.dailycal.org/2018/04/19/o-body-where-art-thou/

https://www.dailycal.org/2018/04/26/the-faces-of-autism/
If you meet one person with autism, you have met just one person with autism. The same diagnosis can have a thousand faces as I explain in my last column.
