Show Notes Chapter Markers

Born in The Netherlands, Casey's story is a fascinating one. At the age of 21, he was diagnosed with classic autism, a condition that affects an individual's ability to communicate and socialize. However, despite this diagnosis, Casey had a hidden talent that would eventually change his life.

From a very young age, Casey was drawn to art. He was always drawing and, as he got older, he began to notice something interesting. When he was drawing, people left him alone. They didn't expect him to communicate or engage in social interaction. For Casey, this was a safe space where he could express himself without fear of judgment or misunderstanding.
