My guest this week is Dr Jordan Grigor, who is a marine biologist, data analyst and he also blogs about his experiences with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). Jordy is a great example of following your own path, and how ASD can be a strength and a gateway into different careers.
In this interview, some key things we discuss include:
- what marine biology and oceanography are
- the creatures he's studied, where he studied them, and why
- the impact climate change is having on our oceans
- how we can gain a global perspective through exploring and protecting our oceans
- what led to his diagnosis of ASD as an adult, and how he reflected on his past
- why he decided to start blogging about his life with ASD and what he writes about
- how he became interested in STEM and marine biology in particular
- advice for children and young people, and much more!
