Personal: I am a class 3 wheelchair athlete who has a spinal cord injury that happened at birth. I tried numerous sports such as sled hockey, wheelchair tennis, and wheelchair basketball, until I discovered table tennis, and that became my focus. My goal is to represent the USA at the Paralympics.
Something interesting about me: I hate to lose more than I love to win! Can read more about me and my personal story on my Go Fund Me Link below.
