Rocca Salcedo Is Wheelchair Dancing Through Life 👩‍🦽💃🏻✨

View descriptionShare

Rocca Salcedo came to Australia as an international student to study International Law, when her whole life changed forever.

Rocca was involved in an accident that resulted in a lifelong disability. She spent over a year in hospital, away from family in Columbia trying to navigate this new life as a disabled person in a new country and in a second language. 

In anyone's language that is a lot to take on. But Rocca did it. 

Now as a qualified lawyer advocating for people with disabilities, the ambassador for This Girl Can and runs her own Wheelchair dancing group Dance and Roll.
