He has trouble with or cannot perform certain tasks most adults take for granted such as driving a car or making reservations for dinner, for example. Presently, he lives in an assisted living environment with an autistic roommate and has a job at Sage, a crafts store which employs the handicapped and is supervised by non-handicapped personnel.
