I am Lori. I am from New York and currently live in Baltimore, MD (US) with Karen, my partner of over 10 years.

I learned that I had Asperger's syndrome in 2005 after a lifetime of misdiagnoses. Since then, I have gone from thinking there was no one else like me in the world to finding a huge community of people who have had nearly identical life experiences as me. I have also been on a mission to help autistic people find each other on the internet.

I am a freelance web developer and spent the better part of 3 months building this website. It was a labor of love and it is a work in progress. I feel very lucky to be a part of the Autism Women's Network and hope that someday I will be able to do this type of work for the autism community full time.
