What does mobility mean to me? As an athlete, coach, adaptive sports coordinator, and orthotic/ prosthetic resident, MOBILITY IS EVERYTHING. Mobility creates FREEDOM. Freedom to explore, to participate, to level-up, to create friendships, to uplift, to be healthy, to triumph, & to be your unique self.

This April I had the opportunity to travel to Quito, Ecuador with the Range Of Motion Project on a mission trip. This volunteer group assisted clinicians in providing 25 custom prosthetics. These devices gave mobility and freedom to patients that wouldn’t otherwise have access. Please support me this MOBILITY MAY by donating to my fundraiser. The mobility may challenge aims to create funds for the nonprofit clinics year-round and continue to provide high-quality care to these patients. I'm excited to join this incredible initiative and get moving for a cause! I will be running every day of the month to promote awareness for mobility access. I'm moving miles so someone in need can take their first steps. Thank you for your support!

“Movement is medicine and physical activity is a right, not a privilege. But today, millions of children and adults with limb loss, limb difference, and mobility impairment are unable to afford and access life-changing prosthetic and orthotic care that helps them be physically active due to inadequate insurance coverage.” (from the So Everybody Can Move campaign)
