Dr. Magro is an award-winning autistic professional speaker, best-selling author and autism consultant to the HBO series "Mrs. Fletcher" that aired in Fall 2019. He started professional speaking 10 years ago via the National Speakers Association after he fell in love with theatre as a child which helped with his social and communication skills.

In addition, Kerry is CEO & President of KFM Making A Difference; a nonprofit organization that hosts inclusion events and has provided 86 scholarships and counting for students with autism to attend college since 2011.

In his spare time, he hosts a Facebook page titled, "Kerry's Autism Journey" that now has two hundred and eight thousand Facebook followers where he does on-camera interviews highlighting people impacted by a diagnosis to breaking down barriers in the community. His videos have been watched over 35 million times.
