I have experienced marginalization, discrimination, and exclusion throughout my life. I have been stared at, ridiculed, and even denied service because of my dwarfism. However, I have also experienced the power of community and the strength of the human spirit. I have met many amazing people who have taught me about acceptance, compassion, and love. I am proud to be a part of the disabled community, compassion, and love. I am proud to be a part of the disabled community, and I am committed to advocating for change.
