  • What is your "why"? Why do you do what you do?
    Two years ago I met my, now fiance, at a Best Buddies event. He has Autism Spectrum Disorder and struggles with social interaction, maintaining long-term friendships, and finding gainful employment. He has the most genuine heart and the things I've seen him struggle with are things most individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities deal with daily. I joined Best Buddies because of their amazing services for disabled folks in our community.
