Show Notes – Episode Six – Matt Gunter from Inclusive Academia

This episode of the Neurodiversity and Higher Education welcomes Matt Gunter from Inclusive Academia and author of “Manager to Consultant: Parenting Your Neurodivergent College Student.”

Matt Gunter became interested in the topic of neurodivergent student college readiness while exploring college options with his son. Matt collaborated with the College Autism Network (CAN) to create two workbooks for neurodivergent high school and college students and their families. In 2024, he published "College Readiness for Neurodivergent College Students." In February 2026, Matt and CAN released a second workbook entitled, "Manager to Consultant: Parenting Your Neurodivergent College Student." Matt hosts Inclusive Academia, a YouTube channel for neurodivergent high school students and their families who are exploring their educational and career options. Matt's also developing a mobile application called Routine Success that supports executive functioning and independent living skills. You can contact Matt at Matt.Gunter@routine-success.com.
