The only time I look back is to see how far I’ve come! As I sit here reflecting, I am truly grateful for this moment and where I am today!
After my accident at work, I was in a wheelchair for 3 years, and not sure if I would ever walk again! During that period of time I never gave up on myself, my passion for creating, writing, photography, or my love for traveling & being outdoors!
After many ups & downs, fighting the system, going through intense therapy & learning to stand, walk & live again with my invisible disabilities…my personal experiences led me to realize the power of the mind is an incredible gift! Focus, determination, will, Visualization, positive thoughts, mindset and a lot of hard work, helped me achieve many goals including standing up again, literally!
Being disABLED doesn’t mean I’m unable, it means I have to research more, work harder, prepare more & do things differently!
During the 3 years I was using a wheelchair, I discovered how inaccessible our world really is which led me to start my Award Winning Series The Disabled Photographer Project & How Accessible is Accessible series.
