I am on this board because I want to show other folk on the autism spectrum that they have the power to create a life that they feel excited to live, even if it scares them. I have also found fulfillment and joy in being with people who think like me, working to make a difference.
I am 22 years old and work at The Home Depot while living with my parents. I would have a lot of regret if I grew old and this never changed. I am on a spiritual path of self-discovery and healing. I am saving money right now to go to Germany because I want to live with the Shaolin Monks to learn from them and their way of life. In the meantime I am enrolled in an online course by Shaolin Temple Europe to learn Qi Gong.

Fern Johnson
Board Member
Hi I’m Fern and I live with autism, disability, and my amazing service dog Edison. I’m kind of a Jack of all trades in terms of hobbies and skills (art, cooking , crocheting, and nature loving) and I like to think I’m kind of funny.
I am a part of SocialliiASD because I want people to know “a different kind of autism” it looks different for everyone on the spectrum and everyone has different needs , I want to use my voice and point of privilege to make the world a better place.

I enjoy playing Magic the Gathering, D&D, video games, going outdoors and hanging out with my pets. I have three dogs named Bella, Chewy, and Artie. My favourite activities to do outdoors is camping, hiking, and kayaking. Magic the Gathering is a trading card game that I have played for 9 years.
I want to be a part of SocialliiASD is to meet up with people that are just like me and to be able to do fun activities with them.
