Hi! My name is Connor and I moved to Costa Mesa in September! From a very young age I have had a strong appreciation for working with people with special needs, growing up my neighbor had down syndrome and as we grew up together he became one of my best friends. My freshman year at UNH I got involved with the wheel chair rugby team and I would attend their practices and assist them. I also got to join in and play wheelchair rugby with them and let me tell you it is not easy! In the summer of 2018 I worked at the Painted Turtle in CA a camp for kids with life threatening illnesses where I ran a wheel chair accessible ropes course. I also volunteered with Granite State Adaptive in college where I helped teach children with physical and intellectual disabilities how to ski. I consider myself to be a very professional and fun individual, nothing in life makes me feel more rewarded than working with people with disabilities.
