I began losing my vision when I was twelve, which challenged my identity as an athlete. After finding goalball a few years later, I started training for the Paralympics, but those aspirations were challenged when I tore my MCL. Finally, after a grueling effort to get back to the court, I made it to Tokyo. And now I have an ACL injury to recover from. So I've had my share of hurdles, but everyone has hurdles of their own, and I enjoy connecting over struggles. Let's use this time to discuss how to maintain a positive attitude and always get back up in the face of adversity.
