I feel that religion can be used as a tool to guide your life and help you connect with other people.

Most of my work is comedy; it's meant to inspire empathy in people and help them find joy.

You want the world to be set up for you, but sometimes it just isn't.

Technically I can get out of my wheelchair and crawl around and do things, but when I've traveled and they've lost my wheelchair in transit, I feel like I need to be bound to it. My functionality and autonomy are often bound to this.

I had to write a comedy set and film a show at the same time. And it's the second time I've been up on stage as a stand-up comedian with untested material. I was saying it out loud for the first time that night. It didn't go how I expected, but in the best possible way.

If everything was perfect, it would always be a person-first conversation, but whenever I have the opportunity, I lead with my personality. If they're looking and seeing the disability first or the chair first, I know that I have the ability to change that.

You really just have to have a good attitude, challenge yourself, and you can accomplish great things.
