Bio

I'm a Gen Z writer, advocate, and podcast host, and I'm also on the autism spectrum. Because of my autism, my path has been a rocky one, but I have always found meaning and passion in my drive to connect with other people, learn more about the world around me, and make new friends. In November 2020, I started a podcast called GENERATION CHANGE WITH LEO FINELLI. It's a one-of-a-kind podcast featuring inspiring interviews with Gen Z activists and creative artists. My interviews have the casual, authentic vibe of two friends getting to know each other - because that's what they are! With new episodes every month, my podcast is still going strong after more than 3 years. I also love to write and tell stories, and in April 2024, I self-published my first book, a chapter book for kids called SEVEN SLICES OF LIFE. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with a major in English and a minor in Film Studies, and I'm currently looking for opportunities to do what I love in an environment that accepts me for who I am!
