I'm a communication scholar with an MA in sociolinguistics, and over a decade of experience as a professional interpreter, translator, and designer of language access systems.

I've spent my career studying how language works across cultures, and when I turn that lens to neurodivergent communication, I see sophisticated patterns where the medical model sees deficits.

As an autistic and gifted person who learned English in school and navigated years of cross-cultural professional work, I understand both the theory and the lived experience of operating between different communication systems. I see the logic, patterns, and purpose behind neurodivergent culture and communication.
