Jayce was diagnosed with High-Functioning Autism when he was 3 years old, while his father was deployed in support of Iraqi Freedom. He recently turned 18, and though he is nervous about adulthood, he has really come into his own. He wants to go to college to get a degree in Art and Computer Animation, and work in animation. His short-term goals are to get through high school and to get his learner’s permit, and then driver’s license. He loves all animals, but especially his cats, Wheezy and Cleo. He also enjoys comic books, Yu-gi-oh, anime, and movies.
