This young lady is a mother and author pursuing her Master's Degree in English-Second Language. But one of her current passions is being an Advocate for Autism. Her daughter, Jasmine, has reignited a passion within and caused her to open up another corridor of her heart and purpose. Ms. Moore created an online community called "LearningwithJasmine" and serves as a Parent Supporter to other parents with beautiful autistic children.
