Bio

Although my diagnosis will make my journey difficult, I will overcome every obstacle maintaining remission to achieve greatness. Your investment in my future will be fruitful, as I have no option for failure. Failure is giving up - and I refuse to give up. I choose to live each day to the fullest potential because every day is a gift. Understanding my physical limitations, I chose a career in which I could leave behind an encouraging legacy for those that are fighting any disease. I chose to study education to become an early childhood educator for special needs children. It is my desire to make a difference in as many lives as I am afforded an opportunity. Change begins with the ones that step forward.
