Wheelchair rugby has been part of my life for more than 20 years, and it’s time for my annual fundraiser to support the NRH MedStar United Wheelchair Rugby team.
Running a competitive wheelchair rugby team takes real resources. Tournament travel adds up quickly, rugby chairs and equipment need constant maintenance, and there are plenty of other costs involved in getting a full team onto the court throughout the season.
This fundraiser helps NRH MedStar United cover those expenses and stay competitive in the league. With our upcoming season approaching, that support is crucial.
I’ve set an initial goal of $500. If you’re able to donate, any amount will help my teammates and me keep doing what we love. If you can’t donate, sharing this post with others would also be greatly appreciated.

It’s time for my annual SuperH 5K fundraiser!
I’m raising money with NRH MedStar United to support MedStar NRH Adaptive Sports. These programs help children and adults with physical disabilities participate in recreational and competitive sports.
Wheelchair rugby has been part of my life since 2005. I know firsthand how much adaptive sports can offer, from competition and confidence to friendships and community.
My first goal is $500. If you can donate, any amount will help. Sharing this post also makes a difference.

The SuperH 5K Run, Walk and Wheel takes place September 20 in McLean, Virginia.
Putting my Ercoupe back in the hangar takes a tow bar, a couple of straps, some adaptive problem-solving, and occasionally using my power chair as a tiny battering ram. 😅
The setup works, but getting the plane back inside is still the part of the process I’d most like to improve.
Pilots, engineers, and tinkerers: How would you make this setup easier?
The full walkthrough is on my YouTube channel. Link in bio.
How do I pull my Ercoupe out of the hangar as a wheelchair user?
A carabiner, a tow bar, some straps, and a power chair.
I pull it straight until the wings clear the hangar, make a careful turn, disconnect everything, and get ready to fly. Independence is often less about finding one perfect product and more about creating a method that works for you.
What other parts of flying as a wheelchair user would you like to see?

Check out my newest video where I show how I get my in and out of the hangar. I'm still working to smooth out the process completely, but I thought it would be useful for any other pilots with disabilities out there.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to EAA - The Spirit of Aviation this year. I'll be sure to get in a flight or two in the next week in its honor.
