Studying humanities at university, Georgia was named our Young Citizen of the Year for their work and support with people with autism.

In November 2022, Georgia co-organised an event with Angelique Joy called ‘Autism and Making Space’, which was hosted by South Australia’s first Assistant Minister for Autism, the Honourable Emily Bourke MLC.

Georgia has been recognised by people in the autism and disability communities for their involvement in the Minister’s Autism Strategy consultation and on a more day-to-day basis, they work to encourage disadvantaged youth to attend university and follow their dreams.
