ABOUT TARRUCK WHEELER
I’m Tarruck, a nontraditional learner turned AI and public policy innovator. Diagnosed with dyslexia, ADHD, and autism, I’ve transformed challenges into catalysts for creativity and resilience. My work sits at the intersection of emerging technologies, mental health advocacy, and inclusive public policy. Emerging Tech & Research: From quantum computing to cybersecurity, I’ve explored cutting-edge solutions at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) to foster inclusive, forward-thinking innovations. Founder, N.E.T: My startup revolutionizes how we identify and support neurodiverse learners. By harnessing AI, we provide accessible pre-screening and personalized resources, so no one is left behind. Mental Health & Policy: As a board member at the Institute for Strategic Policy Solutions, I champion broader access to mental health services and ethical AI adoption in the public sector. I’m excited to collaborate with nonprofits, startups, and government agencies that share my passion for harnessing technology for social good. Let’s connect to drive transformative, inclusive change together.
