We are welcoming Zachary Friedley as a keynote speaker at the Discover Conference on May 2nd this year. Zachary was born without a right leg and now is a sponsored athlete. He looks forward to sharing his story and how he he had to work and even beg at times, for years, for help from prosthetists and other organizations to receive the bare-minimum support in order to get where he is today. He does a number of running events and above all else, appreciates getting to help other amputees and individuals with limb difference to live their fullest-life possible, and helping others with learning how to advocate for themselves amidst the difficult medical world today. Make sure you're signed up for the conference to come and hear him speak!
