This is a speech I wrote and delivered at my Graduation Ceremony in 2017 in front of nearly 1,000 guests. I thought I’d share it on my website as I think it is still as relevant today and helps me gain perspective.

The personal side of success

Looking back on the past 4 years, University has been a time of immense growth. For those who don’t know, I have had a medical condition since I was 13 that in some respects made me different. I was not allowed to drink, or learn to drive, continue playing sport or be an independent teenager exploring the world with friends like so many of my peers.
