About Me

#ActuallyAutistic #ADHDer

As a hardworking creative thinker and "activator," I believe I can be an asset to my employer in several ways. For instance, I excel at bringing ideas to life, and with my creative thinking skills and ability to activate others, I can take abstract concepts and turn them into tangible results. My employer can count on me to help bring the company's vision to life. Furthermore, I am a team player who is skilled at building relationships and working collaboratively. I can be relied upon to help others work together to achieve shared goals, which I believe is critical for the success of any team.

Skills & Strengths

Neuroexceptional Talents

My neurodivergent mind allows me to hyperfocus on user pain points, think strategically on creative solutions to problems that may not have been considered before. I was able to leverage these skills in college at Georgia Tech where I pursued a project in my dorm room and developed a business plan along with a 15-page grant proposal. My approach allowed me to identify innovative solutions to problems that had not been considered before, and to create a comprehensive plan that ultimately won us $300K in funding from the Department of Health and Human Services.
