'I am a high-functioning human being on the autism spectrum but have a mission: to show people that I am not broken, do not need to be fixed, there is no normal in this world, and I am successful, with autism. I want to celebrate the successes of all people.

I embrace who I am and feel as though everyone should do the same. My mission is powerful and this extraordinary idea is catching on and getting the world’s attention.'
