They say I am an overachiever because I am obsessive... I say I am determined because I do what I love with hard work and perseverance.

Being a global citizen all my life, I have been to forty countries in five of the seven continents. World Travel has and will forever and always be the gift of my dreams. All of my worldwide expeditions have motivated me to become an autism self-advocate. It is my passion to be a global professional speaker changing people's perceptions about autism.

My biggest success was fulfilling my general education at "Village Glen West," a special needs multi-disciplinary school administered by The Help Group in Los Angeles. Feeling the hatred and bossiness from school bullies berating my dreams, I was valedictorian for the Class of 2015 and became the first student to attend a prestigious university in New York City. Continuing to prove doubters wrong, I graduated Pace University Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Political Science and Peace & Justice Studies, Class of 2019. I define my success while blazing new trails.
