Nathan Katzman
I am autistic, and growing up I faced monumental social and educational challenges. I did my best to not let a label define who I am. I have many educators to thank for believing in me. Learning math, science, and English were important, but I made it this far because motivation, perseverance, and self-control were values instilled in my psyche. I am not afraid of failure, and anxiously look forward to my future. I hope to one day turn around and lend a hand to a younger version of someone just like me.
