Meet Brett! 💚 In case you've missed it, Brett was awarded an Honorable Mention prize in the 2025-2026 "In the Limelight" Video Contest and is yet another compelling example of someone who exemplifies our mission of rebranding disability through achievement. He is navigating life, ice hockey, and giving back with a disability and showing us how limitless his capabilities are. 🏆

He shared, "I was born with a severe hearing loss. Luckily, I have Deaf parents who emphasized accessible communication, especially regarding education. Through their example, I learned to see past the “hearing loss” and recognize the “Deaf gain”: strengths gained as a result of my disability.

I’m more visually-oriented, which fostered a lifelong love for drawing and visual arts. Struggling to understand means I know how vital clarity is in conversation and always make sure no one gets left out. Fluency in American Sign Language gives me a keen eye for motion & expression, which allows me to bring characters to life as a freelance animator! I applied that same “strength in disability” mindset again after my ADHD diagnosis: A brain full of rapid-fire thoughts fuels my boundless creativity as I make connections between unrelated concepts and dream up imaginative ideas.

My disabilities strengthened me into the skilled artist I am today!"
