Gabe (Age 29, They/Them)
I was raised in a small village in the thumb of Michigan called Sebewaing. I'm a singer/songwriter trying to make a career out of it, and a digital artist on the side. I'm quiet but thoughtful, and always seeking truths and hidden meanings. My autism gives me a sensitivity that helps me connect with ideas and emotions in ways that help inform my music and art.
I was diagnosed in 2025, and it can be a struggle going through life not knowing why you have different needs than others, or that you have them at all. However, finding out about my autism in adulthood gave me a unique experience of clarity not only about confusing moments in the past, but also gave me a path to find tools to better meet my needs and learn more about my strengths.
