About the Founder
At age 31, I founded Active & Autistic. I became autistic after the MMR vaccine. I enjoy bowling, listening to rock music, hanging out with friends and family. I don't want to brag, but lots of people say that I'm a loyal friend and a nice guy. I like helping and connecting people and that's why I decided to start Active & Autistic. Even though I have lots of friends, I really want to meet friends who are like me. I'd also like to meet a girlfriend to share my life with. I know there are a lot of you who feel the same way. Most of our events will be in the Pittsburgh area because I live in Valencia. My dream is to host Active & Autistic national events. Through the help of Moondog and John Vento, creators of Band Together Pittsburgh, my first fundraiser raised $900 for Autism Pittsburgh, formerly known as the Austism Society.
