What does attending USA Games mean to you? Building memories and stories that will be shared for a lifetime is the significance of the 2022 USA Games for me. I love having a role in that. From announcements of athletes making the team to those final goodbyes at the airport, this is a journey beyond description that you have to experience!
How has Special Olympics changed your life? I found genuine purpose with Special Olympics. Serving athletes by creating an environment of equality and inclusion changed how I move through life. Recognizing all people face challenges and deserve an opportunity to feel understood and seen as having value is the lens I now approach seeing others with.
