About Me

---

It was my junior year of college and I found myself very socially isolated. I wanted to make my life better, to be happy and for people to understand me. 

So I decided to tell the world that I had Aspergers.After creating a video of me about my life with Aspergers, my relationships were better and I was much happier. I ultimately learned that I can influence people and help other people who have Aspergers to overcome similar challenges. I came up with the name AuthenticAspie to not only improve the perception of the Autistic community, but to stress the need to be authentic. Whether you have Autism or not you do not need to change yourself to be accepted. Stay authentic always.  AuthenticAspie has given me a sense of confidence that has been therapeutic. As I grow AuthenticAspie I grow an understanding of myself and the Autistic community.
