Claire Desbans
I am a student at Northwestern University studying Neuroscience and Business Institutions on the pre-med track. I started ACEing Autism my freshman year of high school at Sage Hill School in Newport Beach, CA and continued to volunteer up to my junior year when Covid-19 hit. I felt so lucky to be a part of this great organization and to give back to my community that I wanted to give that same experience to my peers here at Northwestern. This is my first year starting ACEing Autism with my co-founder, Melanie, and am excited to see it grow over the next couple years.
