Born in Brooklyn, NY, Michelle was diagnosed with Autism at the young age of two. Despite some of the challenges she experienced in her earlier years such as eye contact, temper tantrums, and communication issues, Michelle is an absolute force to be reckoned with and has proven time and time again that despite the difficulties she may experience, her life is limitless. Currently, Michelle is a popular Keynote speaker and has had the opportunity to speak about what life is like living with Autism and also works as an instructional paraprofessional at a public school in New Jersey. In her free time, Michelle creates posts and entries on her inspiring blog, “Exceptional Shell,” and regularly interviews and features guests on her blog to discuss issues and feelings that surround the Autism community.
