I'm a 26 year old filmmaker, songwriter, writer, actor, screenwriter, comedian, lyricist, artist, puppeteer, announcer, public speaker, dancer, political activist, visionary, cartographer, and a transportation planner who happens to be autistic. I was born on October 24th 1997 in Baltimore, Maryland to Argentinian immigrants who came to the United States in the 1980s. I am of Argentinian, Spanish, Italian, German, French, British, Irish, and Austrian ancestry. I was diagnosed with autism at the age of 3. In my middle school years and in my freshman year or high school, I was bullied because of my achievements and because of my autism. This was a period of depression and sadness where I was suffering from constant bullying. These years were not nice for me. In high school, my life was changed when I joined Best Buddies. In August 2013, I joined the Reservoir High School chapter of Best Buddies to enrich my social skills. I graduated from Reservoir High School in May 2016. On March 7th 2018, I was compelled to speak alongside my mother, Dianne Nagel of Project Access, Kathy McSweeney, Director of HCC Disability Support Services and Melissa Rosenberg, Executive Director of AUSOM discussing Autism in Howard County. I shared my inspiring journey to adulthood as a person with autism that was not always easy but continues to be flavored with humility and kindness. In addition, I received the 2019 Young Trailblazer Award from the Howard County NAACP and the Partners In Policymaking award from The Arc Maryland, the Maryland Developmental Disabilities Council, and People On The Go.
