Sophie talks to the multi-talented Alexandra Adams. Alexandra is an athlete, a photographer, a cook, an artist, a writer, poet, TED talk speaker and medical student. She’s also deafblind and suffers from a Mitochondrial condition. Sophie and Alexandra first met on a training camp in Austria with British Parasnowsport in 2016 and that was the start of a friendship which led to many interesting conversations about their experiences of living with a disability and their shared commitment to breaking barriers and changing people’s perceptions about disability. Sophie asks Alexandra about growing up deafblind, how she persevered and succeeded to get into medical school despite adverse circumstances, and her project, Faces of the NHS where she is showcasing diversity within the NHS through her photography. Sophie finds out how Alexandra is not only changing, but smashing, the conception about what disability means.
