Join me, Angie Kiger, on Wheelchair Nerds for Episode 45: Rolling into the Kitchen: Cooking with Gabby DiSalvo. In this engaging episode, I chat with Gabby DiSalvo, a junior at UConn who is making waves with her blog, Cooking on Wheels. Gabby shares her journey of adapting her kitchen to suit her needs as a wheelchair user and discusses the challenges and triumphs she has faced along the way. We delve into her passion for cooking, sparked during the pandemic, and her dream of hosting a cooking show with a focus on disability advocacy. Gabby also opens up about her transition from a manual to a power wheelchair and how it has impacted her independence. Whether you're a therapist, caregiver, or someone who uses a wheelchair, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration. Tune in for a lively discussion that might just inspire you to start cooking from your chair.
