I’m a Paralympian and founder of The Born to Run Foundation.
What's your favorite TED or TEDx Talk, and why?
I love hearing Ted Talks about overcoming adversity and hearing others share how they were able to accomplish their biggest dreams.
What people or events have inspired you professionally?
The people that truly inspired me are all the Paralympic athletes that have paved a way for someone like me to continue playing sports and being an elite athlete.
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
One thing I would change about the world is normalizing people with disabilities and have us be given equal opportunities.
How did you feel when you learned you had been chosen as a speaker for TEDxAM23?
I was extremely honored and excited when I found out I will be a speaker for TEDxAM23! To be able to share my story, and to also speak alongside incredible people is something I can’t wait to do!
What do you most want TEDxAM23 attendees to know about you?
Something I want attendees to know about me is that I’m a fighter. I love to try new adventures and to put myself out of my comfort zone and to prove to the world that amputees are just as capable at doing something than any other human being!
