About Me
Hello, my name is Rachel H Sanders. I am an autistic, Jewish woman trying to live her best life. I am from Port Washington, a place in Long Island, NY. I co-created Obility, the current disability-justice organization on campus, and the first liberal arts disability theme hall, Disability Solidarity Hall. Formally a History major with deep interests in Disability Studies, I am looking towards a freezing cold law school. Don't let the depression or anxiety confuse you, I am a pretty open pan, demisexual woman. Ask me about my interests in Disability Justice, or what happens at Bee Bench.
