Tiffany is an autistic author, wife, and proud mom of two amazing autistic teenagers. They live in Texas. Tiffany has her master’s degree in developmental psychology, with a focus on childhood development.
But her “real expertise comes from living and breathing the everyday joys and challenges of being autistic and raising children with the same diagnosis. My mission? To show the world that autism isn’t some doom-and-gloom diagnosis—don’t get me wrong, it can be incredibly difficult, but it’s also a journey full of love, growth, and yes, plenty of laughs. I aim to shake up outdated perspectives and explore how intersectionality shapes our experiences.”
The short was intended to help humanize and spread awareness about real nonspeaking autistic people. This resource comes from "Communication First". https://communicationfirst.org/
