Alec Sheaffer

is an autistic and ADHD (AuDHD) clinician, educator, and former Division I athlete with deep expertise at the intersection of neurodivergence, sport, and human performance. Alec holds a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy, a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy, a Master’s degree in Special Education, and a Bachelor’s degree in Rehabilitation Science.

With 15 years of experience as a competitive coach and 9 years as a pediatric occupational therapist, Alec brings both high-performance sport insight and clinical precision to her work. Her background spans athlete development, motor learning, sensory regulation, executive functioning, and inclusive program design across competitive and developmental contexts.

Alec has experience speaking professionally and training coaches across the US, Germany, and Japan. She is a published author on occupational therapy’s role in inclusive sports.

As an autistic professional, Alec’s work is informed by lived experience as well as evidence-based practice. This dual perspective shapes a strengths-based, neuroaffirming approach that challenges traditional sport models and reimagines athletic environments to better support autonomy, access, and sustainable participation for neurodivergent athletes.

Jenna Minter

is an ADHD educator whose work is rooted in expanding access, autonomy, and belonging in movement and sport. She brings a nontraditional athletic perspective, having begun her athletic journey as an adult, and centers the belief that meaningful participation in sport is not dependent on early specialization or conventional pathways.

​

She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and a Master’s degree in Special Education. Her academic and professional training is grounded in child development, learning theory, and inclusive educational practice—knowledge that directly informs family-centered and community-based approaches to participation.

​

With 20 years of experience as an educator working with both children and adults, she integrates teaching, coaching, and relational practice to support confidence, skill development, and self-efficacy. Jenna has worked with diverse populations across the US, China, and Japan. A core component of her work is a coaching-based model that empowers individuals, emphasizing collaboration, capacity-building, and shared problem-solving rather than compliance-driven intervention.

​

Jenna helps design athletic environments that welcome late starters, families, and individuals who have historically been excluded, ensuring that access to sport is defined by possibility, not prior experience.
