Paralyzed from the shoulders down at 13, Molly relearned everything — as a lefty — and today walks with pink forearm crutches. She shops for adaptive clothing in regular stores and shines a light on accessibility across Chicago and beyond.

Diagnosed with ALS at 23, Erin co-created assistive technology with the Scott-Morgan Foundation — including a hyper-realistic AI avatar that looks, sounds, and speaks like her in real time.
