Alyson Roth just awarded 2nd Runner Up in the Ms. Wheelchair America Pageant!

Hello!

Throughout life, we are all faced with challenges and obstacles in which we have to make a decision of how to handle them. The reaction may be quick and hasty or more thought out and purposeful, but the decision is ultimately a direct reflection of what we believe in our spirit to be true. Even a decision to do nothing is a decision!

My life has proven to be no more or no less than exactly what God has been willing to see me through, despite the result of my decisions. I am so thankful that He has never given up on me! I invite you to walk with me in this journey of healing, restoration, and forgiveness as together we learn to trust God’s desire to draw us closer to Him, no matter what the circumstance.

In July 2009, I became the first woman with a disability to surf in the U.S. Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, CA.  I am extremely proud of this accomplishment as history was made!

I am also thankful for the opportunity to represent the state of California as Ms. Wheelchair California this year and look forward to bringing more awareness to those with disabilities as well as educating the public about the importance of inclusion and access in a world full of possibilities!  By certified confidence training, we are all able to accomplish are best through outlets like action sports among so much more!

Blessings,

Ms. Wheelchair California, 2009
