Eliana Bravos
Co-founder @ ND Connect
Eliana is nourished by co-creating accessible community spaces where people form deep social ties and feel like they belong. Eliana initially came up with the idea for ND Connect after she found a life-changing mentor, completely by accident, who also had ADHD and shared some of her other lived experiences. These relationships are hard to find but they shouldn’t be. She has an HBSc from the University of Toronto, where she studied Psychology and Peace, Conflict, and Justice. As a social impact entrepreneur, she’s supported 1000+ leaders in making their cultures and processes more accessible and has facilitated non-hierarchical peer programming with neurodivergent people since 2018. She has also spearheaded projects on COVID-19, student rights, and employment discrimination. Eliana dreams big and gets people excited about our mission. She’s still learning to not be too anxiously perfectionistic, but feels like she makes up for it by being a good source of comedic relief.
