Welcome back to the Bright & Quirky Hero Series, a series of videos celebrating bright and quirky adults.

In this vlog, Nicole Tetreault, PhD, neuroscientist and author of Insight Into a Bright Mind: A Neuroscientist's Personal Stories of Unique Thinking, shares her academic experience as a 2e student.

It wasn’t until college that academics finally “clicked” for her. Now, Nicole’s greatest wish is that children don’t have to wait that long to have an open, positive experience in school.

Take a listen to hear her thoughts on how parents and teachers can shift their perspectives.
