Atypical Living

Helping individuals with diverse abilities navigate and thrive in a complex world

Hi! I’m Tricia.

I’m a speech-language pathologist who creates AAC, life skills, and social communication resources for educators, therapists, caregivers, and individuals with diverse abilities.

Through Atypical Living, I also offer advocacy apparel and interest-based enrichment experiences focused on communication, connection, and meaningful engagement.

I believe meaningful learning starts with connection, personalization, and individual interests.
