It's no secret that people in the medical community don't always get it right.
They told the parents of Andrew Roberts when he was a baby that he would never speak.
On this episode of the Breaking The Ice - Let’s Talk Inclusion podcast, host Steve Nearman discusses Andrew's recent graduation from Ithaca College's Sport Media program.
He received an autism diagnosis shortly before his second birthday and is the first and youngest Flutie Foundation Fellow, only 14 years of age when he started with the organization.
As a junior announcer for the Boston Red Sox, Andrew’s fandom grew over the years, and when he was 10 years old, (after borrowing a book at the library called “How to Start a Blog”), he started his own sports website, bostonsportsmania. com. It now has over 750 posts.
On the podcast, Andrew discusses his time at Ithaca and his incredible depth of sports media work in just 22 years of life.
