Raven Steinbruegge spends his time involved in theater and band, two activities that let him explore his creative side. While he enjoys both, he admits that band stands out the most.
“I’m really into theater and band,” Raven said, “though I think I like band better.”
Outside of his interests, Raven hopes people become more aware of autism. He believes understanding the struggles people with autism face—and learning how to treat them with respect—would make a real difference.
“I wish people were more aware of autism,” he said. “Like the struggles and how to treat people with autism. It would make life easier.”
Raven has also overcome personal challenges, particularly anxiety. He says he has made noticeable progress in recent years.
“I’ve become a lot more willing to talk to people recently,” Raven shared, a change that has helped him feel more confident in everyday situations.
Through music, performance and personal growth, Raven continues to develop his voice while advocating for greater understanding and acceptance.
