Hey there. Welcome.

Well, for those who know me, you know autism is a huge part of my life. It’s not only part of my career, but also part of my family. Autism has had far reaching effects on pretty much every area of my life, in some way or another. So I decided to start a blog about my experience with it.

See, autism is complex. Some might even say, it has layers…like an onion. In fact, in talking with someone the other week, she used the “autism onion” metaphor. And it hit me…THAT was my blog title! So thanks to that special person; you know who you are. You’ve given my blog a name. 🙂

So, this blog is my space to write silly stories, revelations, complaints, frustrations, heart-aches, and anything else that comes to mind. I’m a big sister… I’m a therapist… I’m a soon-to-be BCBA. And, this is my attempt at peeling back the hundreds of layers of autism.
