In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I'd like to give thanks for a few of the many blessings that have come [dis]ABLE's way in 2015. This list is definitely not all-inclusive, but here goes the top 5 (I can think of at the moment):Ā By the end of June, I was extremely happy we reached our [...]
Iām a lot of things. Son, brother, friend, and colleague are a few of these things. I work hard. Iāve traveled a good deal. I prefer small and intimate gatherings to wild parties but donāt get it twisted; I can throw down with the best of them. I love music, fine dining, and sports. I [...]
Yesterday my business partner and I had the awesome opportunity to speak at West Chester University. We had so much fun that the professor invited us to stay for her second class. In both classes the message I hoped to convey was that just because someone has a disability doesn't imply, well, really anything. Everyone, [...]
Fall is upon us, and I've got all the gear you need to stay warm in the online store! Let me introduce you to the very talented photographer who snapped all of the photos now on display on the Home page and online store. Models with & without disabilities because we're ALL able! [...]
Given the recent victory against Penn State football, I think itās only right I put a spotlight on my alma mater, Temple University. Drawn to the school by its urban location, diverse student body, and honors program, my years as a Temple student (2007-2011) will go down as some of the best years of my [...]
Up until twenty-five years ago, you might not have known we even existed. People with disabilities were excluded from mainstream education as many public buildings were not created accessible or accommodating. Discriminatory hiring practices based on disability made getting a job nearly impossible. The origin of the term "handicap" was coined because people with disabilities [...]
It takes me a good, long hour to get ready every morning... And it's not for the reason you think- that being in a wheelchair must make getting ready a more difficult, onerous process than just throwing on a shirt and pants before rolling out the door. That's not true. If I was alright with [...]
It's been about one week since I've been back in the City of Brotherly Love, and I'm already itching to take [dis]ABLE back out on the road. We had a great Abilities Expo in Chicago, where we were excited to meet representatives from cool companies like ABL Denim, NuMotion, Frill-Ability, and many more. Oddly enough, [...]
"You're my new hero," he said. I had heard lines like this my entire life. Hanging out at a bar amongst friends, sitting in the park solo, or just waiting at a bus stop. Strangers often feel so inclined to tell me how "inspirational" I am. At this point, honestly, it just goes in one [...]
The past few weeks for [dis]ABLE have been a whirlwind to say the least. Weāve launched a Kickstarter campaign to grow and expand the business, made a push to participate in more community events, and have been gearing up for a [dis]ABLE road show starting this week! Itās been an amazing experience getting out and [...]
