A person can do anything they want to by having a positive
attitude and willpower!
I love when people tell me that I can’t do something; that makes
me try harder! For example, my high school teachers told me
that the students with disabilities don’t go to college!
College took me 13 years to finish, but I did prove those
teachers wrong. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Speech
Communication. In those 13 years, I ran into some professors
who didn’t want to deal with me. They didn’t want to take the
time! The professors who did take the time, actually learned a
few things from me.
I only had my Willpower and Positive Attitude to get to
where I am today!
You have to set goals in order to make your dreams come true. I
speak on the importance of short-term vs. long-term goals. All
of my presentations are done with my laptop and projector.
I leave 10 minutes at the end of my talks to allow people to ask
questions as they view my slideshow of pictures of my
activities. People often start asking about my service
dog, Trivia. Then they start asking about my Cerebral
Palsy! I would rather people ask me questions, then to make fun
of me behind my back!
I love making people think that life is really not that bad!
I hope you consider booking me.
Have a great day!
