Things I learned growing up with autism
This guest blog post is by 24-year-old Nicholas Courgi of Fayetteville, NY. Nicholas recently spoke at an Autism Caregivers Brunch where he discussed obstacles he had to overcome associated with his autism. Watch his speech below.
I was diagnosed with high-functioning autism when I was 3 1/2 years old. My favorite hobbies include theater, photography, public speaking, computers (I am proficient Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint as well as Facebook, Snapchat & Instagram), going to movies & musicals, swimming, traveling, bowling, event planning, marketing & writing.
I worked as a Marketing Assistant at Syracuse Children’s Theatre for a year and hosted my own radio show, “Lives of Distinction” where I interviewed individuals with developmental disabilities.
