• Grew up knowing I was meant for a big stage — competed in singing, musical theater, and dance before most kids knew what a résumé was
• Spent years on the ballroom dance floor — where I learned that how you carry yourself tells the world everything
• Earned a degree in Media Production and pointed myself west — I was going to be the next Barbra Streisand
• Clawed my way into SAG — one of the hardest unions in the world to crack
• Doubled for Heather Locklear on set — yes, that Heather Locklear
• Walked away from Hollywood — when I was still walking — because I wanted my life to mean more than my butt
• Went back to school. Twice. Degrees in Marriage & Sex Therapy and Construction Management — because why stop at one?
• Investigated child abuse in Florida — because meaningful work doesn't always come with a spotlight
• Owned a jazz nightclub. Sang live seven nights a week.
• Fell in love in the most cinematic way possible
• Wrote a book about my adventure across 235 dates
• Became a civil rights force — fighting for access, dignity, and accountability under the ADA
• Consulted for pharmaceutical and DME companies on drug development and product design
• Built a YouTube channel and kept creating through a pandemic — because idle hands are not my thing
• Became a competitive boccia athlete with Paralympic ambitions
• Built tech apps from scratch — in under a week — with zero coding background
• And came back to Hollywood — with a lot more than my butt

And doing it all from a wheelchair these days.
