My name is Chuck Aoki, and I am originally from Minneapolis, MN, and I have used a wheelchair since the age of ten, due to a rare genetic condition. I am a three-time US Paralympic medalist in the sport of wheelchair rugby, current captain of the team heading to World Championships in October and have been involved in adapted sports for my entire life, starting with wheelchair basketball at age 7. Currently I work as a Community Access Navigator at the University of Michigan, where I oversee our "Prescription to Play" grant program, intended to increase access to sports and fitness opportunities for people living with SCIs.
