th
2019, located at the Brae Burn Country Club in West Newton. The venue is absolutely beautiful! To this day I am still shocked I was a part of it! It was an amazing experience that I will never forget! I know I say that a lot but it’s true, I mean how can anyone forget an amazing opportunity and experience they had? Here’s the thing, you can’t!! Especially if you have or do things that helps remind you of the awesome time you had, trust me when I say I have plenty of those and I am grateful for every single one of them! I remember everything like it was yesterday! On Thursday February 14
th
2019 my friend Adam Combs from Waypoint Adventure!-A non-profit educational organization that helps people with disabilities breakthrough their comfort zones and find ways to challenge them through various fun activities. We met through another non-profit organization called EPIC!
EPIC is a one-year program for youth and young adults with disabilities. Where they do community service and leadership days throughout the greater city of Boston! I am apart of both organizations! I love being a part of all the different communities!
Adam reached out to me and he ask me if I was interested in being a part of the “I CAN” film! Of course I said yes! From there we kept talking about the concept, honestly the more we talked about the concept, the more I got excited to hop on board and join the “I CAN” movement! If I could describe the film in a few words they would be.
1.Breaking barrios!
2.Encouraging!
3. Confidence Builder!
4. Storytelling!
There are more words I can use to describe this wonderful movie I don’t know how time everyone has lol! Thursday March 14
th
2019 was one the best days! Why? Because it was shoot day for the movie and trust me when I loved every minute of it and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat! We filmed at the Central Rock Gym in Watertown. Did I mention I love to rock climb and I rock climb with one hand? Yes you heard right! One hand!! I definitely woke up a lot of muscles that day! It was great. I absolutely loved how the communication went between everyone. Communication is key! Without communication it’s extremely hard to get through in this world! Thursday April 4
th
2019 was a day filled with many emotions for me. Why? Because it was officially “I CAN” movie premiere day! I was to say the least! It was crazy to see how everything finally came together in one piece! Don’t even get me started with seeing myself on screen! I totally freaked out on the inside!! I will never get used to seeing my face on screen!! It’s unreal!!!
