Tyler was diagnosed with autism at 22 months old when his language abilities regressed. Today, Tyler speaks publicly as an autism awareness advocate and says his biggest successes include graduating college, getting a full-time job and serving as a board member for the Autism Society of Iowa.

This segment is from Iowa PBS’s online series The Life Autistic, which explores the challenges and successes of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder at different stages in life and ranges on the spectrum. The series features various age groups ranging from the very young to the elderly, including personal profiles and interviews exploring topics relevant to each age group.
