A studio photograph of Touretteshero sat in her vibrant, blue wheelchair with her arms stretched wide. She sits at an angle, twisting slightly towards the camera. Touretteshero is wearing a blue and white superhero track suit scattered with stars and fringe at the collar. She has starry trainers, a mask with floppy ears, and fingerless gloves that match her costume. Peaking below her mask is a welcoming, closed mouth smile.

Changing the world one tic at a time
