"In some ways, the idea of Sports on the Spectrum might never have happened if not for a radio interview I did in the summer of 2020. I was asked to come onto a show called "Behind the Student-Athlete" on KQBH in Los Angeles. When the radio interviewers heard my story about how I have used sports to help my autism, they asked my dad to join me.
My dad and I had such a great time doing the interview and telling my story that we wondered if perhaps there might be a larger audience to discuss autism as well as other mental and emotional health conditions and the role that sports can play in aiding those conditions, which led to Sports on the Spectrum and this website. But it might never have happened if not for this interview!"
