ABOUT MICHELLE

My name is Michelle and I was born with cerebral palsy.  Doctors told my parents that I would never walk, graduate from high school or lead a “normal” life. Today, I can do all those things and more. Thankfully, I had  the right equipment, an incredible family who refused to accept this limited perspective. They taught me to believe in myself, overcome any challenge and live my life to the fullest.  I want to help others do the same.  

I work and volunteer in my community. I didn’t do it alone or get everything right (I still don't). What I've learned though, is that God loves and values everyone. EVERYONE. I’m no exception. Neither are you. It is irrelevant if you share my exact faith. We're all different, loved and valued by God. It’s MTA's mission to assist you.
