Help support Joe’s journey to the 2026 Paralympics

Over eight years of training, traveling, working (physically and mentally), and also a lot of fun as he has been given this opportunity to do what he loves as his career. The reality of being a paralympic athlete means that you have to make sacrifices. Those sacrifices include being away from family, not being able to work a full-time job year round, and the physical push on your body, in and out of season.

Joe has demonstrated extraordinary talent and determination in the sport of adaptive snowboarding, showcasing not only impressive skill but also inspiring perseverance. As a below-knee amputee, he faces unique challenges that require specialized equipment and resources to overcome.

Joe and his family moved to Midway, Utah last year to be closer to his coaches and the Center of Excellence, the training center for Team USA Ski and Snowboard. His training was grueling at time last year, but he stuck with! It paid off in this seasons World Cups, with a second place finish in the last World Cup. He also got National Champion at the last World Cup for being the fastest American in all categories, Lower Limb 1, Lower Limb 2 and Upper Limb.

Because of his hard work, Joe reached his goal and made it to the 2026 Paralympics! But the journey isnt over yet! Joe still needs financial support for his Specialized Equipment (High-quality, adaptive gear that enables him to perform at his best) and medical expenses (new feet, sockets, and amputee stump socks).

Your generous contribution will not only support Joe in reaching his athletic goals but also help raise awareness about adaptive snowboarding and promote inclusivity in sports. We are seeking to raise $25,000, and any support you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Your contribution will make a significant difference and help propel Joe towards success.

Thank you for considering this request. This dream is only achievable through the support of Joe’s family and friends, and the sponsorships he receives that help cover the costs.

Joe is extremely grateful to his supporters and sponsors!
