Having a degree in finance and two internships under my belt, I was given interviews at top-notch companies such as Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and many more highly regarded finance companies. It wasn’t until I read How [...]
For our second featured blogger, we have a good friend of many years, Morgan Duffy! Her and I met when we were kids at Muscular Dystrophy Camp at the Variety Club. We are very grateful she is willing to share her experience with online dating! When Jack asked if I was in an accident, I [...]
For our first featured guest, I would like to introduce super-producer Simon Illa. Simon has been a mentor to me since we met over 10 years ago. As a young person with a disability, he was one of the first adults I met living independently with a significant physical disability similar to my own. Under [...]
