Biography
I have Cerebral Palsy, I'm nonverbal, and I communicate with Tobii eyes gaze computer. I'm a model / actress / children's author / public speaker / Miss Wheelchair NJ 2026 and a student majoring in Criminal Justice and Psychology. Also, I was a co teacher for individuals with disabilities with ACC devices. I truly love working with individuals with disabilities and being a role model for them. people have treated me differently since I was because I was nonverbal. Hence, people used to say very mean stuff right in front of me without realizing I could understand everything they were saying. I want to make a difference through public speaking and advocating.
