GABE ADAMS





THE BEST PART OF YOU



What does it mean to go beyond the realm of what’s possible? To defeat the odds, when the world has all the odds stacked against you? To look at your most agonizing challenge, and achieve it every single time? Gabe Adams knows, because his whole life has been about achieving the impossible.


Gabe was born in Brazil with a genetic disorder called Hanhart Syndrome, which left him with no arms or legs. Had he stayed in Brazil, who knows how his story would have been shaped, but one miracle changed his path. He was adopted by an incredible family from Utah, who already had 12 children, but they knew they could give Gabe the love that he would need, to be the best he could be.


But as far as miracles go, that is the only one Gabe has been given, because everything else in Gabe’s life has been a journey with continued challenges that he needed to overcome. An opportunity to look at the impossible with a tenacity and drive to achieve the impossible and continuously prove that your heart, mind and body can catapult you further than you imagined.
