Hello! I am a college student studying to hopefully pursue a career in neuropsychology, helping to advocate for kids and adults with special needs so that they can live as happily and independently as possible. I have two older sisters, one with NLD and CP whose special needs played a crucial part in shaping the way that I grew up. I am extremely passionate about disability rights and finding creative solutions for the day-to-day struggles that cognitive and developmental disabilities present. I hold a part-time internship at NESCA in Newton, MA, where I am exploring a more clinical perspective of aiding kids with special needs, though throughout my life I have held many close relationships with children and young adults on the autism spectrum and with Down's syndrome.
