WDSD Spotlight – TJ Carroll

Hello! I’m Tj Carroll. I’m 20 yrs old and a senior at Corydon High School. I have Down syndrome and autism. I love my iPad, Sesame Street, Barney, Bear in Big Blue House, The Wiggles, music, dancing, parades, fireworks, holidays especially Halloween, watching live bands, but I also live in my own bubble. I’m non-verbal but give great hugs. I’m not very social but love going places. I love going to Gatlinburg and riding go-carts with my dad and seeing The Comedy Barn show! I have two older sisters and two nieces. We have large family so I have lots cousins. I live in Elizabethtown and we have lots animals that I don’t particularly care about (Lol). Oh, I don’t go anywhere without my spoon!
