Chanelle Moriah

Chanelle Moriah (they/them) is a neurodivergent author and illustrator and is the author of the bestselling I Am Autistic.

They are passionate about creating spaces of understanding to allow the freedom of individual expression. As a late-diagnosed ADHDer, with other related conditions and forms of neurodivergence, they are particularly passionate about bringing awareness to the different ways in which neurodivergence can present, and the importance of being able to live your life accordingly.

They hope that by sharing their life and experiences, and helping others to understand, they are reducing the harm and trauma (even if only for one person) that neurodivergent individuals face in existing in a neurotypical world.

Chanelle lives in Wellington, New Zealand, and enjoys bubble tea, lego, and sitting in the rain.
