December Monthly Highlight
Living with SMA, I want others to see me for the kind, independent, fierce woman that I am. I have learned that fashion is a great tool to normalize disability and express my individuality. Finding flattering, stylish clothing for my unusual shaped, child-sized body is often a challenge, but I have never given up! Earlier this Fall, I was part of a first-of-its-kind fashion show where I got to collaborate with others in the disability community, challenge the stereotype, and champion adaptive fashion while rolling down the runway. This was a dream come true, especially for a girly-girl like me. Disability visibility in the fashion industry is so important and something that I am passionate about. EveryBODY deserves to show up to their life feeling confident and beautiful.
