About me

I am an autistic PhD candidate and research assistant at the University of Kent. This is my research and professional website - the website used to be a personal blog but has grown to be a showcase for various academic and non-academic projects I have taken part in. 

My current PhD research is on the inclusion and belonging of autistic people, and how this intersects with identities that people hold. I am based at the University of Kent and on a funded studentship from 2018-2023. I am also a Graduate Teaching Assistant. 

My research interests include the following: autistic people and other marginalised groups, spirituality, inclusion and belonging, belief system communities (theistic and non-theistic), identity, emancipatory disability theology, cyber security education and education policy & social policy linked to cyber security education. I have also been a research assistant on various projects, building on my expertise of qualitative methods.


My twitter handle is @krysiawally.
