I pride myself on being a decent human being. I will call out Racism, Sexism, Homophobia, Transphobia, Misogyny, Ableism and all forms of discrimination.

The most important thing is Be Kind and treat others the way you expect to be treated.

Itโ€™s heartbreaking, that people still perceive autism as a problem that needs to be solved.

Some have arrived with a stereotypical view and left with a deeper understanding.

Itโ€™s still a fight.

Itโ€™s heartbreaking, that people still perceive autism as a problem that needs to be solved.

One of things Iโ€™ve learned is, we need to shift the paradigm.

With my work co-presenting training, Iโ€™ve seen the before and after effects.

Just had a thought, IF Elon is autistic, wouldn't that make him a DEI hire?

Maybe my logic is off, but it smacks of hypocrisy.
