PASSIONS
Creating a willingness to test limits in ever step, helping individuals who are seeking the same mindset, and spreading the notion that life is what you make it, not what it has become.
PERSONAL VISION
Competing in the 2020, 2024, and 2028 Paralympic Games, become a 4x Paralympian, and creating a company that aims to consult organizations that are helping individuals with disabilities to get back into sport and active lifestyles.
