DAVE THOMPSON is an educator, strategist, and TEDx speaker who helps organizations better understand, hire, support, and leverage the strengths of neurodivergent professionals. An early-identified ADHDer and dyslexic thinker, he grew up navigating systems not built for brains like his and now works to redesign them. Dave, a Visiting Scholar at Vanderbilt University’s Frist Center for Autism and Innovation, speaks to audiences from Fortune 500 leaders to professionals and advocates, bringing lived experience, systems expertise, and big-picture thinking to complex change. Outside of work, he’s a dad, a husband, and a former New Yorker living near Nashville. This is just the beginning. Join us at www.BrainstormNeurodiversity.com
