Unique skill turns into a business for Edmonton man with autism

An Edmonton man with severe autism may not be able to read or speak, but Brad Fremmerlid has a knack for something that many of us often find tedious and difficult. “I could give him a complex LEGO Technic project, up to 1,000 pieces, with over 100 pages of instructions – and without any help at all, he'll simply open up the box, go through the instructions, and he’ll build it perfectly,” said his dad, Mark.Brad has become an expert at reading instruction diagrams and building things after years of practice.
