Nicknamed “Halo Man” by friends from the immobilization device he wore post-injury, Alan Robinson truly serves as a beacon of light for many. In 1991, Robinson smashed his car into three light poles and a viaduct, resulting in a disability of incomplete quadriplegia. Fifteen years post-injury, Robinson has chosen to embrace his disability as a gift, and inspires people with and without disabilities to lead healthy lives and follow their dreams. He insists that we all "leave so much behind for others to follow," and that people with disabilities should not be afraid to pursue their goals in concert with the resources available from organizations.
