About Me: With a BA in Psych, MA in Special Ed, and four years of a PhD program in Disabilities and autism on my CV, I've learned that 'experts' are not always professionals with high degrees, but can be a random stranger who shares your experience. By helping each other, we can slowly fix the broken system.

Location: Berkeley, CA

Interests: Autism, Alzheimer's, mental retardation, special education, minorities in education

Funniest medical moment: I had an abnormal pap one time so I got a 2nd pap done. When I went to the obgyn to hear the results of the 2nd pap, which turned out normal. "Yay! I'm NORMAL!" I yelled with a big grin on my face. My obgyn --- who was a funny man who wore bow ties --- said, "Um well, Talesa, I wouldn't say YOU're normal... but your test result was!"

Medical Conditions: Potentially Alzheimer's and osteoporosis down the road, and whatever else comes my way.

Health Interests: Dermatology, Hygiene, Women's Health
