Matthew Kenslow

MATTHEW KENSLOW has grown up with a form of Autism known as “Asperger’s Syndrome.” Life has been an adventure as he pieced together all of his surroundings amid both praises and teases. His mission is to teach others from a firsthand perspective of how autistic people interprets things differently than the rest of the world.

He believes God has blessed him with the gifts to juggle, playing piano, and recalling facts about the American presidents, geography, science, and mathematics. He goes to juggle at elementary schools and encourages the children there to never give up on their passions.

He has earned the Gold Medal of Achievement (which is equivalent to the rank of Eagle Scout) through Royal Rangers, a program he has been in since he was five. Now, he is giving back to children and teenagers who are at the ages he once was – teaching and mentoring them in a wide set of skills and knowledge.

He graduated Orange Coast College with an Associate of Science degree in Chemistry and is pursuing Vanguard University of Southern California. He currently aspires to be a middle school math and science teacher.
