About AmandaIrtz
Amanda Irtzis the founder and creative thinker of Autism Aptitude, an organization dedicated to providing more empathy and understanding of autism. Amanda has been on a path to creating a more empathic approach to understanding autism since 2016 when she first learned about her son’s diagnosis. After years of crying and being afraid of what others thought, the cries and the fear faded when she discovered the love for her child outweighed those negative reactions from others.
This is what shifted Amanda away from sheltering her son from the world and protecting his every step and beautiful idiosyncrasy, to living and thriving regardless of the no-trespass signs put up in her life. Amanda knows the struggles of autistic parents; however, she has learned to find the joy-filled moments with her son, which ultimately transformed her entire parenting journey.
