👋👀Hiiiii- So many new faces I just wanted to say hello and how happy I am you are here🤗 WELCOME !! For all of those who are new here I thought it would be a great time to introduce myself. 💘 For those who already know me and have seen this video, It’s just a reminder how grateful I am you are with me here on this journey! 🦅 in 2017, I started speaking to schools about kindness, respect and belonging after a pretty bad bullying event in my life. My mom and I created the presentation together, and named it The Grace Effect. We wanted to bring hope, inspiration, empathy and understanding about people like me living with a disability. We wanted to break down barriers and create new perceptions. 👠 In 2018, I spotted a model with down syndrome and I asked my mom if I could be a model too. She said “I don’t see why not Grace, let’s do this! “. So we started on this amazing journey that brought me here today. My mom and I use my platform to 🌟inspire hope, create new perceptions and educate about disabilities in a fun way! For any newbies! Here are some fun facts: 🌝 Born in California, grew up in St. Louis 👯‍♀️ I am the oldest sibling 🌎 Greek, Mexican and Indian food are my favorites 🍿 Fav movies: Harry Potter (Gryffindor!), Freaky Friday and Christmas vacation 🦉 If you are a Potter-head like me, are you Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw?If not, I’d love to know your favorite movie 🎥 🌝. ~ #nicetomeetyou #hairgoals🔥 #spreadlove #lightworkers #shineyourlight #downsyndromeawareness #reelsofinstagram
