In my session, I share my life story being diagnosed with autism at the age of five years old, and how it has shaped me into the strong, passionate autistic self-advocate I am today. I also discuss the impact I leave on young kids and adults on social media, and how being an influencer across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube has been integral in shaping my message to empower, educate, and entertain the public about autism spectrum disorder.

How lived experience informs this session

The presentation will incorporate the lived experiences of people with IDD/mental health diagnoses by using my own lived experience as the primary source- I am autistic, and my experience is vital to the conversation.
