Michelle is a disabled model and ambulatory wheelchair user based in Los Angeles. She began using her walker and wheelchair in her teens after unexpectedly developing two neurological conditions. Nowadays, she decides which mobility aid — if any — to use on that day, and lives with a flexible approach to mobility.

Beyond that, she is a college student, social justice advocate, animal enthusiast, and avid beachgoer. She aims to expand the world of fashion through creative approaches to accessibility and hopes to inspire self-confidence in other disabled women who live boldly and unapologetically.
