About Oliver's personality

Oliver is a bright, highly spirited three‑year‑old whose world is shaped by curiosity, determination, and a huge, caring heart. Even with Usher syndrome influencing how he hears and how he will see in the future, his personality shines through in the way he explores everything with his hands, his body, and that fearless toddler confidence. He’s expressive and deeply connected to the people he trusts, using ASL, facial expressions, and touch to share big feelings and even bigger excitement.

What are Oliver's favorite things to do?

Oliver loves anything that lets him move, explore, and connect. His favorite things include playing outside, everything hot wheels, building with toys, snuggling with family, and learning ASL through play. He’s happiest when he’s active, engaged, and surrounded by people he trusts.

What would your family do with $25,000?

With $25,000, my family would finally get a breath of relief. A chance to slow down, catch up, make our home more accessible and raise awareness for Ushers Syndrome. In addition to Oliver we have another child with ushers and making our home safer for both would ease a lot of stress that piles up daily. I’d also save a little for fun to enjoy moments that remind us why we fight and work so hard for our children.
