I am a keynote speaker, advocate and model
My Story
If it wasn’t for the worst year of my life (2012), I wouldn’t be who I am today. My sudden onset paralysis opened my eyes to the many injustices, inequalities and challenges that are a part of life for those of us with disabilities. I went from dealing with a new identity of life in a wheelchair to using my situation as a platform to help others.
I co-founded ReYu Paralysis Recovery Centre, a non profit organization that uses Activity Based Training to reconnect the brain to the body, retrain the nervous system and redefine what is possible.
