Steve Graby (they/them) co-founded TypeOlogy in 2017 while on a break from studying for their PhD in Disability Studies at the University of Leeds. As a neurodivergent non-binary person, their aim was to create flexible, accessible work for disabled people, trans people and others who experience unjust barriers to gaining more mainstream employment. Steve is actively involved in disabled people’s organisations and is currently doing a postdoctoral research project on disabled people’s involvement in co-ops in the UK.

Rob Noon (they/them) is the spreadsheet enthusiast who leads on TypeOlogy’s administrative work. When they’re not replying to emails they are likely to be found in the garden. They are also involved in Myco, a workers’ co-operative and community mushroom farm based in Manchester. 

Leah Phillips (they/them | she/her) is a transcriber-of-four-years and musician-of-many-more, currently based in Berlin. In addition to the interview transcription they do at TypeOlogy, they spend their time transcribing all sorts of music, be it a recorder solo, vocal trio, or a Big-Band score; playing as much as possible; and developing their skills as a jazz guitarist. Her hobbies include historical linguistics, chess, board- and video-games, and fox memes.
