I’m Matt, and this is my channel - The Atypical Workshop. I was diagnosed with Autism in early 2020 and after initially struggling to come to terms with my #neurodiversity, I’ve since learned to embrace it. My alternative brain wiring allows me to see things from completely different perspectives and to think of unique solutions that others might miss. The name ‘Atypical Workshop’ came about through the fusion of two very different themes:

During lockdown, while teaching myself carpentry, I also began watching Atypical (Netflix). The show both helped me to understand what I was going through and reminded me of how capable I am. On The Atypical Workshop, I aim to use my unique skill set to both overcome the challenges I face and provide entertaining and informative content.
