Meet Our Team
At Perfect Piece of the Puzzle Inc., our name is more than a title, it’s a philosophy. Every puzzle is made up of unique pieces. Some are corners, some are edges, and many fall somewhere in the middle. No two pieces are exactly alike, yet each one is essential.
We ask each team member to describe what puzzle piece they most identify with because we believe in celebrating individuality. Just like neurodivergent children and children with disabilities, each of us brings something irreplaceable to the bigger picture. When we come together, those differences don’t make us separate — they make us whole.

Founder & CEO
Trishia Bermudez
Out of a deeply personal journey as a single mother to a son with a rare chromosomal deletion. Navigating the overwhelming world of special education and support services, I realized how many families—just like me—were struggling to find the right programs, resources, and guidance. Motivated by my own experiences and learning as a parent advocate, I launched the organization with a mission to improve the quality of life for other neurodivergent & developmentally disabled families by equipping them with the knowledge, tools, and advocacy they need. Perfect Piece of the Puzzle Inc. was born from my passion to ensure that no family feels alone while seeking what’s best for their child.
