The 7-day countdown begins! And a full-circle moment. I never imagined I'd have the privilege to work with Cindy Mori again after she was one of my very first bosses, so being reunited on the 2026 Special Olympics USA Games Opening Ceremony feels especially meaningful. Grateful to be part of an event that celebrates the very best of inclusion, sport, community, and joy. #LetTheGamesBegin 💙 #2026USAGames #SpecialOlympics
