In Conversation with Roy Tuscany & Alana Nichols

Roy Tuscany is the founder of the High Fives Foundation, created after his own spinal cord injury to support others with life-changing injuries. Known for his “pay-it-forward” philosophy, Roy has become a national leader in adaptive sports advocacy, recognized with numerous awards and a TEDx talk that challenges audiences to rethink obstacles.

Alana Nichols is a five-time Paralympian and the first American woman to win gold in both Summer and Winter Games. After her injury at 17, she became a powerhouse in adaptive sports and a passionate advocate for inclusion, now excelling in adaptive surfing and serving on the Women’s Sports Foundation board.
