Over my life I have worked with all kinds of kids and adults with neurodevelopmental and mental health and physical disabilities. I myself am Autistic and ADHD, I had a traumatic brain injury 5 years ago that took a long time to recover from. Before that I led workshops and classes, paid and volunteer and always worked with all kinds of clients. I think it is important to have a good understanding of activities of daily living that can make life really hard for us, I am equipped to help, eager to bring light and enjoyment and motivation or just companionship, perhaps some mixture of those. I love playing disc golf, swimming, exploring, random adventures, organizing, and having a plan. I try to find pleasure and magic in the mundane and people often love me for it. I have space and time to give if you are needing extra hands/ideas.
