How has Special Olympics changed your life?
I enjoy working with all the different kids and enjoy helping them out with different things that go on. Being in Special Olympics has helped me get along with people better.
What does Special Olympics and attending the National Games mean to you?
I really enjoyed playing in the 2006 National Games and would enjoy playing in the 2010 National Games with new people and playing on the basketball team is going to be fun. It means everything to me.
