But instead of letting those obstacles define him, Carter embraced them, transforming his unique perspective into a powerful advantage in life and on the golf course. " Swinging Beyond the Spectrum " is a heartfelt memoir that chronicles Carter's journey from a young boy struggling to fit into a successful entrepreneur and skilled golfer whose story has touched countless lives.

In this deeply personal account, Carter reflects on how his early struggles with communication and social norms shaped his outlook on life. Golf became a lifeline-a space where he could focus, thrive, and develop the patience and resilience to navigate life's challenges. Through the support of his family and mentors, Carter learned to harness the strengths of his autism, turning what others saw as limitations into his greatest assets.

"Golf taught me more than just how to play a game-it taught me how to navigate life," Carter shares. "I want others to know that being different isn't a weakness; it's a superpower."

" Swinging Beyond the Spectrum " has already gained high-profile endorsements from legendary figures in the sports and autism communities. Ernie Els, Hall of Fame golfer, philanthropist, entrepreneur, and founder of Els for Autism, praised Carter's journey as "a truly inspirational human who sees obstacles as opportunities."

Doug and Laurie Flutie, co-founders of the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism, also endorsed the book: "Carter is an exceptional young man who has already profoundly impacted the autism community on and off the golf course. His book is an absolute must-read, and it is aligned with our foundation's mission of creating opportunity and acceptance for people with autism. We are proud to stand with Carter and share in his vision to create a more inclusive world for all."

Join Carter for His 2nd Annual Autism Awareness Golf Tournament and Book Signing

In celebration of the book's release, Carter will host his 2nd Annual Autism Awareness Golf Tournament and Book Signing on Saturday, April 26, 2025. The event will provide participants with a powerful firsthand experience of what it's like to navigate the world with autism.
