I was a respite provider for a decade, mainly for my cousin with Autism. I'm now a tutor, and many of my students have special needs. I was in GATE as a child. As an adult, I learned that I have ADHD. I can empathize with others' difficulties because I experience my own. I embrace who I am and lead a successful life. I live alone, I've maintained a tutoring business for many years, and I perform in bands. I am patient, positive, and intentional with my time.
