Gillis “GW” Williams is a 24-year-old autistic self-advocate, spreading autism awareness and acceptance through education and inclusivity. As a public speaker with a relevant social media presence, GW has developed and built his brand Autism Chose Me™ (‘empowering autism acceptance and neurodiversity education’), entertaining the masses on what autism really is and how we can all work together as a community to spread not only awareness, but also acceptance, about the spectrum.
