Rudy is a proud member of the Easterseals Southern California Autism Advisory Board and Autism Research Team. A graduate from San Diego State University with a Bachelor of Science in Statistics, Rudy brings his personal experiences, perspective, and passion to his work within the autism community. As an individual on the autism spectrum and uses a wheelchair, Rudy believes that challenges do not define who a person is. Outside of his involvement with Easterseals, he enjoys spending time with friends, meeting new people, going to the gym, traveling, and dining out.
