How has Special Olympics changed your life? I know how important and fun it is for these individuals to compete in these events so being a part of this is awesome. Being able to change their lives is in turn changing mine.

What does attending USA Games mean to you? Attending USA Games means a lot to me. I really enjoy making sure that everyone has equal opportunity for success and equal opportunity to participate in everything. The USA Games is the biggest place where I can show how much admiration I have for this and I can’t imagine how important it is for all the participants. So, being able to help these individuals at such a worldwide stage is definitely what I look forward to the most.
