Erik Puleo-Coats
Sac State Junior majoring in Journalism

My strengths are: Leadership, public speaking, computers, self advocacy.

I am good at: Disabled sports.

My proudest accomplishment is: Graduating with two degrees from community college and giving my graduation speech as president of my college in my final year.

In my spare time I like to: Ride ATV’S, water ski, and even though I’ve only done it once, sky dive.

I am passionate about: Having a career as a sports broadcaster and showing awareness about disability.

Something about me that surprises people is: My drive to be successful and make a difference, and the fact that I can take my walker and perform a handstand on it.
