What makes you most proud? Simply proving people wrong my whole life when it comes to my disability.

What does attending USA Games mean to you? It means the world to me to be picked for Team Wisconsin and to go to the USA Games as I’ve heard stories from others about their experiences and how much fun it was for them and the more stories I heard the more I wanted to have my own experiences. I’m also proud to represent my hometown Waunakee and Wisconsin in Orlando. What I look forward to the most on this trip, aside competing with my best friend Garet, is simply exploring Orlando as I have never been to Florida before.
