I'm a truth-sayer, not a smooth talker!
They used to call it "Asperger’s,” but now they call it ASD1 or "on the spectrum." It’s more a superpower than a burden—for me anyway. I’m just kinda surprised that it took this long to figure it all out. Finally, everyone can stop wondering “What’s the matter with that guy?” Now we know.
I communicate least effectively with my mouth but quite effectively with written words and images. I help strategize growth and I fix branding, messaging, and marketing for startups and small to mid-sized businesses. And I help people raise money! I use AI tools. You will NOT find me on Linked In. I occasionally publish written work on Substack at ScottJBailey and WhiteMedicine.
Thanks for learning more about me!!

I had my head examined, and the results were off the chain!
I'm ASD1—formerly labeled Asperger's—with a Full-Scale IQ of 136, and a Perceptual Reasoning Index of 149—top 99.9th percentile. I am sharing an edited version of the confidential neurological test results below; the interesting results are highlighted.
Curriculum Vitae — Summary
I have a wide range of valuable product presentation, development, and branding/marketing experiences I draw from. I started as an advertising Art Director, conceptualizing, storyboarding, and often writing both print and broadcast TV commercials, and brand messages, ultimately for Citibank, Nike, and Taco Bell. This opened the door to becoming a Production Designer for indie films, "Twisted" & "Circus Lives," and later, sets for Nickelodeon and SyFy channel promos.
For a time, I used these skills to thrive and support myself while developing my intellectual property. After creating and developing several analog products, Swiggle™, UberNobber™, and a novelty I called SexToys™, I turned my focus to developing digital products. I launched a Facebook parody website called Bearbook™ and an iOS app, KaleidoVision™, the same year. I closed both four years later due to a lack of monetization for each, but boy did I learn a LOT!!!
Since then, Amazon hired me [4-month contract] as the Lead Production Designer for Jeff Bezos' “Firephone” presentation. And I joined the Executive Teams of two significant startups: Prizmiq, which was 3D product-viewing web software aimed to replace photo “sliders” in the e-commerce space—way too ahead of its time and not enough runway. And Humanly.io, which is currently thriving; I’m lucky to own shares in the company for helping get it off the ground and fly for a few years.
