Hi there,

I write freelance articles about family, parenting, and special needs, primarily autism. I wrote a book about raising my son, who is on the spectrum, and the challenges and blessings autism has brought to us while interacting in a world that is not so accommodating to those on the spectrum. I don't always feel like there is a place in this world for him and I want to be part of changing that.

I have 2 children, a 21 year old son has high needs autism and attends a vocational program for autism. My 19 year old daughter is a sophmore in college and has ADHD.

I love to read, write, cook and hang out with my family.
