Heidi Johnson-Wright is both a writer and an ADA compliance professional.
(Also a lawyer, but please don't hold it against her.)
She's had severe rheumatoid arthritis since childhood and is a full-time power wheelchair user. She was a poster child for the Arthritis Foundation.
Over time, she's come to the conclusion that going through life in an upright position is overrated.
Johnson-Wright has been a published free-lance writer for more than two decades, writing stories on inclusive design, life with a disability and accessible travel, as well as book and music reviews.
Johnson-Wright is a native Clevelander who got smart and moved to Miami.
She and her husband are two of a handful of Anglos who live in her Little Havana neighborhood.
In addition to her essays in "Tales of Our Lives," she has a forthcoming memoir titled "The Earthbound Tomboy."
