At the age of nine I was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome after years of my parents suspecting that I was a little different. At times I've thought my condition to be a great disadvantage, but at other times a gift.
After years of coming to terms with it - and having flourished in a public speaking environment - I realised that I am one of the few Autistic people that can properly and accurately articulate the experience of living with Autism to an audience.
Through analysing my own behaviour and characteristics throughout the years, from childhood to adulthood, in addition to thoroughly researching the condition from external sources, I aim to give a fresh, personal and new perspective on Autism. I hope that, by sharing my experience and knowledge, I can help parents and carers who do not have Autism themselves to understand those who do.
