About Me:
I’m a fun-loving, outgoing, and bubbly person who enjoys football, many different sports, swimming, and being in the gym. I also have a passion for Harley Davidson bikes and discovering new things to do. I’m a big animal lover, except when it comes to snakes, spiders, or creepy crawlies. I adore travelling and exploring new places, and being in a wheelchair doesn’t deter me from pursuing my desires. In 2002, I had the honour of being the first disabled person to carry the medals at the Manchester Commonwealth Games, and I also had the privilege of carrying the Queen’s Baton the day before the opening ceremony.
