Deb, 
I was not yet a member of NFB in 2010. My first state convention was in 2015. Anil never fails to impress me. I’ve found something inspiring in every national representative we’ve had since I’ve been in the organization.

I was captivated by his journey and his sense of humor. If you were there you will remember that there was a graduation party going on in the room next door. The music was quite loud and as Anil got up to the podium, he said “this is the first time I have ever had to compete with Lady Gaga!“
