About Me

I am a young woman who has lived with a Non-Verbal Learning Disability. I was in schools that told me I could not achieve my dreams. Today I am singing Opera and loving every minute of it. I love life, and I love showing people that just because I have a disability does not mean I am less in any way, but rather that I shall find a creative way of achieving my goal!

Quotes

"Ever man is a damn fool for at least five minutes; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit"- Hubbard "Yesterday is History, tomorrow is a Vision, but today is a gift that is why they call it the Present"-Anon "Listen to the Salutation to the Dawn. Look to this day for it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of our existence; the glory of action, the bliss of growth, and the splendor of beauty. For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision, but today well spent makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well therefore to this day, such as the salutation to the dawn" -Anon
