Introduction
BUILDING SOMETHING TOGETHER
I'm interested in working with companies and organizations that believe in what I'm building, both as a professional athlete and through Respond Forward.
I don't want a sponsorship to begin and end with a logo or a promotional post.
I'd rather understand what an organization is trying to accomplish and find ways to contribute that feel genuine to both of us.
For me, a successful partnership is one where there's a clear purpose, shared expectations, and a reason to be proud of working together.
Speaking and media
THE DISABILITY LENS.
I took part in The Disability Lens, a podcast from Spinal Cord Injury Ontario that shares perspectives on disability and inclusion.
It was an opportunity to share my experiences as a professional wheelchair bodybuilder and speaker, and the personal perspective behind Respond Forward.

PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Partnerships can take different forms depending on an organization's goals and available resources.
Support might focus on an individual competition, a speaking engagement, a content campaign, or a season-long partnership. Each arrangement would be discussed individually, with clear expectations about support, deliverables, and commitments.
The wider opportunityWHAT YOUR
WHAT YOUR
SUPPORT
MAKES POSSIBLE.
I want my voice to reach more people.
Through Respond Forward, I've discovered how meaningful it is to connect with audiences, share experiences, and create conversations that people can relate to in their own lives.
I want to continue bringing that message into more schools, workplaces, and communities.
The right partnerships can help open those doors through speaking opportunities, events, travel support, and increased visibility for the work I'm doing.
I don't expect every conversation to change someone's life. But I know that reaching more people creates more opportunities to connect, encourage reflection, and potentially make a meaningful difference.
SUPPORTING MY COMPETITIVE JOURNEY.
Competing professionally requires a significant financial commitment. Travel, accessible accommodations, transportation, and competition expenses are all part of pursuing opportunities at the highest level of bodybuilding.
Partnership support can help make those opportunities possible.
That's what I'm hoping to continue building alongside my competitive career.
