About

I am the owner and sole operator of The Autistic Innovator LLC.Like many of us, I didn’t know I was autistic until I was 35 years old. We all know what happens with a late-in-life diagnosis - we spend a lifetime wondering what is wrong with us.Eight months after I was informally diagnosed, I launched The Autistic Innovator and began a journey that started as an autism blog and on August 14, 2021 it became an online store for autistic & neurodivergent adults.What’s driven me from the very beginning is genuine love for our autistic & neurodivergent community. Supporting us in any way I can, serving the community through the products I sell and create, and pouring my everything into what I do. I love my store and our community with all of my heart.
