My TEDx South Lake Tahoe Talk Is LIVE! This lifelong dream of mine is a reality! 

 If I may be so bold, I have a couple asks:

1.Please watch!

2. Please share, like, love, comment and most of all enjoy!

In May 2021, one of my bucket list dreams came true when I was invited to speak at TEDx South Lake Tahoe. My talk, “Disabling Ableism: The Modern Pathway to Inclusion,” is a love letter to myself, others with disabilities, and society at large that brings light to the empowerment of having a disability. It’s also a call to action to examine — and dismantle — the ways that ableist thinking exists in our day-to-day lives.

My hope in sharing my story, is to inspire others to achieve their fullest potential, and further conversations about the real bottom-line benefits inherent in a diverse and inclusive society.

“We can’t hide our differences. We need to embrace them, honor them, experience them, believe in them, discuss them, share them, and include them as life’s beautiful treasures.”

Thank you for all the love and support I have received!
