About Me

Hello from Colorado where I live with my Dad and Mom! When I was 16 months old, we found out I was born with Angelman Syndrome. While having Angelman Syndrome has changed some of the paths I take on my journey, it has not dampened the joy of my journey! Thanks for being a part of my joyful journey!
