Her ‘Why’: What made you get involved with ROMP as one of their Ambassadors? I got involved with ROMP because of the mission for Mobility for All. I want to facilitate and promote the ABILITIES of people with limb loss who receive the appropriate care.
Favorite ROMP Moment: I joined ROMP for a week in Guatemala in 2022 and helped provide gait training to some of the first Community Based Rehabilitation participants. They were so dedicated to the program and it was amazing to see their hard work pay off and watch each person walk out of the clinic on two feet.
