I’m Florida’s First Openly Autistic Attorney. Here’s What That Means

Haley Moss’s piece on becoming Florida’s First Openly Autistic Attorney was featured in the Huffington Post. Among her insights: “One of the most common questions I’ve been asked since my story went viral is what the term ‘openly autistic’ means. ‘Openly autistic’ gained traction after Joe Zumpano, one of the founding shareholders at the law firm where I work, Zumpano Patricios, coined it to describe me in the local newspaper article that covered my admission to the Florida Bar.”
