What does life with a disability really look like? I am often asked this question.
Because when people think about this, it raises many questions.
Everyday things are seen by them as very different and I want to show that this is actually not so bad. In my lectures, I take you through the treatment of spina bifida and the challenges I experience with it. Also with the lecture I want to create awareness

Back in school, it was not common for students to work or go on to college. This motivated me to do the opposite. With my perseverance, I went all out and against all odds, I got my degree and went to live independently. This gave me the motivation to start Believeinyour-self. My story is a proof however unrealistic they sometimes seem, can become reality. don't be discouraged by others

My motto: be strong believe in yourself
then you will go far
