So let's start with when did you learn you're autistic and ADHD, and what was happening in your life that led you to get a diagnosis?
2:43
Yeah.
2:44
So it was a fluke.

I am on social media all the time, so I do a lot of commercial modeling, social media content creation for brands, UTCs, and so I'm on Instagram and TikTok a lot, and I don't know how or why autism came up in my feed, but it did.

And there is this autism assessor in Australia, and her handle is whileyouwonder, and it was this video of her at the beach, and it was like how my autism looks at the beach, and it was the sticking sand that was like that she couldn't get off and, and the breeze and the hair bothering her across her face and the sparkle of the sun on the water and just all of that ick that I ha- I hate the beach.

And she did it in such a way that I, I completely related, and I was like, "How is that autism like?" You know? So I got on Google, and I found this website, which is theartofautism.com, and they have this page which is Females and Asperger's: A Checklist.
3:53
It was from like twenty nineteen, so it's still an Asperger's thing.

So how did you get involved in modeling? In other words, how did you get that first job? What was going through your mind about wanting to model?
