Amy Aquilini demonstrated what a person can achieve even when the chips are down.

This determined young woman has taken the hand she was dealt and made it work after sustaining life-threatening injuries. Amy fought back during her rehab and recovery journey and proved hard work and determination pay off.

Amy has turned lemons into sweet lemonade, and now spends her time and energy being the change she wishes to see in the world.

Amy is an inspiration and a true example of the phrase “you can do anything you set your mind to.”

The comeback Amy has made since sustaining a Traumatic Brain Injury and other life-threatening injuries is nothing short of inspirational and incredible. Amy lives by the phrase, “I’m larger than life, not bulletproof!” She triumphantly took on her near-fatal accident, recovering from the difficulties she faces every day, and yet she roars!

People watch her positive attitude with admiration as this imperfect human (as we all are) goes from strength to strength and never lets anything hold her back.
