ABOUT

Imagine a little boy for a moment. This boy had not been able to speak, until he was four. This boy had a processing disability when it came to learning new ideas, so it took him a while to capture new concepts & to learn new skills. The boy also felt embarrassed & uncomfortable when he could not speak Spanish with his relatives because his parents had to teach him English first due to his therapy. Every time a festivity would happen, he would run away to his room feeling shy & timid because he did not know how to communicate with others except his siblings & his parents. He was escaping to his own world, creating activities that were fun & joyful to him. To top it off, all decisions were made by his parents. Every decision. Alejandro Fundora was that little boy. This is his story.
