Listen, Understand, Empathize, Support

I am passionate about Disability Pride for deeply personal reasons. Disabilities come in many forms, both seen and unseen. They all have significant impact on people, their families, and the larger global community.

I Am Enough

“Disability Pride” comes from within yourself. We must all learn to love ourselves for who we are, and how we are. We must be comfortable with ourselves and our disability, accepting what can be accomplished and overcome, and scaling any barriers that come our way.

Changing the Narrative

The way society looks at mental health is backward. I am passionate about changing the narrative so we can all become more empathetic to each other and build an environment where individuals with invisible disabilities feel comfortable sharing themselves with the world.
