Autism Awareness Month technically runs through April, but there’s never a bad time to spotlight the diverse abilities and unique stories within the autism community. One such story comes from the heart of Middle Tennessee, where a two-year-old named Remy Ortiz is capturing attention at the ABA Centers of Tennessee in Franklin.
Affectionately nicknamed the “baby genius” by his care team, Remy is on the autism spectrum — yet his remarkable talents in counting, reading, and memory retention set him apart from peers twice his age. His story is a powerful reminder that autism doesn’t limit potential; it reveals it in unexpected and inspiring ways.
