About the Presenter

Renee is a Mama Warrior to one exceptional boy, Austin, and wife to her husband, Barry. In her previous life she was a marketing executive, singer, and amateur shopper…and then her world was turned upside-down when A-U-T-I-S-M entered the picture. At ten months old, her son was given an unprecedented, extremely early autism spectrum diagnosis. A diagnosis that was hard-won and a battle like no other, but one that would change the course of their lives forever. Her world became silent when his world became silent, and all that mattered from that point forward was improving his life as much as possible, as quickly as possible.

Because of their success and her son’s amazing transformation, Renee’s biggest passion lies with helping other parents like her. Parents at the beginning of this confusing journey who see signs, but find no help. Who are told they’re crazy…that it’s too early to see signs…too early to diagnose…too early to get help. It’s never too early. There are signs. There is help.
