Disability Pride Parade in NYC 2015

The disability pride parade was an awesome for the first time ever in NYC
I was so excited about the event before the day arrived because I always dreamed of a day to come in which the disability community can come together and the abled body community can have some awareness about people with disabilities
It is hard to believe we have come a long way within the passing of the ADA but we sure do have a long way to go in equality for people with disabilities
What I have done in honor of the ADA celebration and I know Chelsy would be so proud of the hard work I am doing towards school and advocacy.
I saw the legacy tour   bus in Brooklyn and Queens along with both borough presidents,
It was definitely my honor to speak at ICS women's health conference and I did so much more and things are continuing to happen

Plans in Honor of Chelsy

Chelsy was a hardworking, smart, lovely, passionate young lady but she always wanted to make a difference in the lives of people with disabilities. She was the founder of Awareness Key at her college. We want to keep her mission going so I came up with the idea that we should have a scholarship or sponsorship in her honor. 
I will be happy to keep you posted on this mission 
Thanks 

Light up the Empire State Building for all causes

Support all causes 
I notice that the Empire State building lights up for Autism Awareness, down Syndrome awareness and much more but it never lights up for the Cerebral Palsy Awareness month green is our color. We have a high population that keeps increasing of indivduals with Cerebral Palsy and I noticed that we are not recognized the way we should.  I know that my friend Chelsy will be so proud of me that I am making this part of my project on how we can get the Empire State building to light up the building Green when its Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month or day.
I will keep you update on this project

Introduction Of Chelsy Blake

My dear Friend Chelsy Blake was a friend I was honored to know and meet, the way we did was different, simply through a story being published in the Able Newspaper. She never had a friend like me being that I am just like her. We had a different best friend bound she was mostly like a sister to me. We had the same mind set and wanted to see the same ideas for making a difference for people with disabilities and was willing to journey me in my advocacy journey. She was willing to make my dreams come true and create many projects as we had a lot plan.. Weeks before we was planning to go on a advocacy mission to Albany she passed away unexpectedly.. Moving forward I have a lot planned in her honor

Behind the advocacy life

Behind the advocacy world this was never me.
When I become an advocate my world change, dreams as well as my personal life.
I am a star.
I am voice and opportunities grow each day I am bless.
I have endured so much before  advocacy I was always down now I have so much energy I am completly unstoppable.
Advocacy 24\7 on the roll.

Not giving up just found a different path

Often people judge me and will over look the choose I making but this is my life and I decide how I want to live it. Here is the great news I graduate high school and pushed and advocated that I go to college because at that time the only idea people had for me was to place me in a day program but I 100%  denied because I knew this world was big and opportunities now after two years of being in college and receiving college credits and is a good student I found that the knowledge I am getting in college will never been put to use in the work environment so I found my desire to  pursue my journey in becoming an certified administrative assistant and possibly a bookkeeping as well. I will begin this new journey after I complete  my fall 2015 semester I hope to go into the program. So excited for my new goal!
