Summary

I am a 20-year-old male with high-functioning Autism, which has fostered a strong preference for structure, organization, and planning activities in advance. I am friendly, polite, and value good manners. I thrive when active and engaged in meaningful work, and I take pride in maintaining cleanliness and order. I am always ready to lend a helping hand.
At home, I contribute by managing tasks such as laundry, cooking, and assisting my mom with cleaning. These responsibilities have enabled me to develop a diverse range of transferable skills, including planning, organization, attention to detail, and adaptability, which are applicable across a wide variety of contexts.
