ALTER UR EGO

I’m 29 years young and 7 years ago, I was involved in a traumatic car accident that left me a T4 paraplegic. I’ve always maintained a positive attitude toward my injury and kept a smile on my face. After my injury, in 2012, I was crowned Ms. Wheelchair Kentucky where I advocated for those in wheelchairs. This is when I realized that I was destined to design clothing for those wheelchair-bound. I knew I was in the position to make a difference first hand to develop an adaptable clothing line. When I began networking and reaching out to others with disabilities, I soon realized that we all shared something in common: the discomfort and difficulty in regards to clothing when it comes to necessary everyday needs. Clothing that is not only fashionable but also functional at the same time.
