I thought this would be something very fitting to share on World Cancer Day. As a cancer survivor, I can tell you first hand how difficult, ugly and scary the disease is.

Cancer has changed my life… Read More

For me, the year was full of emotions and at times felt incredibly treacherous. It was a sea with violent waters and while I fought, struggled, and somehow managed to keep my head above the… Read More
This August I had a quick stop in Lincoln, Nebraska to work with my Ottobock family instructing another running clinic with some super star amputees. The particular gentleman I’m sharing with you all is Bob White. He is the athletic director at Lincoln High School, and just an over all super-nice guy. Before I spoke to Bob, he came up to me and asked if I had remembered meeting… Read More
Hi Everyone! I finally feel like I have my brain back after traveling back from Doha. Off season is going GREAT and I’m slowly catching back up on my life.

You can get access to the online edition here, where I share my personal thoughts… Read More

You know, it’s been coined “The Hardest Team in the World To Make…” and anyone who has ever been blessed enough to be a member of Team USA I’m sure will agree with that statement. So honored to compete now on my SECOND World Championship Team. I am en route today and as I reflect on this year, this life; I am so overwhelmed with gratitude for every single person being a… Read More
