Older woman holds a tablet up for a younger woman in a pink dress. The young woman touches the screen while she looks at it.

For years, Emma's intelligence was continually underestimated as she struggled to communicate her feelings, needs, and fears to her friends and family. But for the first time in her life, her true voice is finally heard when she begins typing. Through her keyboard, Emma strengthens her connection with others, and her insightful writing is both a catalyst for, and a remedy to, the fear and misunderstanding that surrounds autism. Living in the beauty beyond spoken language, Emma is challenging the societal judgment surrounding autism, one keystroke at a time.
