Angela Bradley
I’m honoured to support rights and choices, empowering people with disabilities to live, learn, work, and play where they choose, while amplifying the message of inclusion.
Anushiya Jeyalinkam
I enjoy meeting new people, making a difference for those with barriers, and exploring Toronto’s hidden gems through dance, music, and nature.
Biljana Jordanoska
I’m passionate about empowering job seekers with disabilities to recognize their strengths, build confidence, and embrace their full potential. Through workshops and meaningful support, I have the privilege of watching them step beyond their comfort zones, grow in self‑awareness, and realize that someone truly believes in them, often becoming confident advocates for their abilities and for the value that people with diverse talents bring to the workplace.

Nick Hadjiyianni
I’m passionate about removing employment barriers, empowering people with disabilities, and educating employers on the benefits of inclusive hiring.
Raj Stalin
I help job seekers turn uncertainty into momentum through structure, empathy, and clear next steps. It’s incredibly rewarding to equip people with the tools they need, connect them to training, and celebrate their milestones. Off the clock, I bring the same rhythm to my life, competing and performing in Bachata and Salsa, social dancing, and singing karaoke to Shania Twain, Celine Dion, Bruno Mars, and the Backstreet Boys. One step at a time, on and off the dance floor, is how I help people build confidence
