Ashlea McKay is a UX researcher and writer. She’s also autistic and didn’t find out until she was nearly 30. It turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to her. Part personal story, part knowledge share and part exploration of UX and inclusion, Ashlea will introduce you to a world where autism and UX collide in the best possible way. Neurodiversity is everywhere and Ashlea probably isn’t the first autistic person you’ve met and she certainly won’t be the last.Through hilarious personal stories, first-hand advice and case studies, you’ll learn what it really means to design with and for a different kind of mind.

52. The problem is most of
them are aimed at our
communication differences
and many of them seek to
change autistic traits rather
than maximise their
strengths just as they are.

53. Autistic people are not
broken and they don’t need
fixing.
