My name is Tristen, and I am a twenty-two-year-old from Calgary and went through the Gap Program in 2024.Growing up in an aging home with a handy father meant that I often found myself helping my dad with fixing just about anything that broke down around the house. Because of this, and a preexisting proclivity to work involving my hands; a love of all things mechanical, be it bicycles like at Two Wheel View, or a furnace broken at home, began to develop.However, it is not just the enjoyment of working with my hands that brought me to Two Wheel View. I learned about The Gap Program through an autism support program.As soon as I began, I found myself almost instantly clicking with the work and culture and so, as I completed that program, Two Wheel never left my mind. And so with that life changing experience, I wish to help do whatever I can to potentially give others just like me that same feeling of acceptance and contribute to the Gap Program in whatever way I can.
