I am a high functioning Autistic. I have lived on my own for 20 years, held a full time job for 16 years. I recently graduated from Santa Monica College with an A.A. in Liberal Arts with an emphasis in Business. I currently have staff who assist me throughout the week. They help me expand my world, in areas I would not have done on my own. I like to type, power walk and sometimes hold interesting conversations with people from all walks of life. You never know who I'm going to connect with.
