Born without hands, Anaya didn’t let that stop her from mastering the art of writing. Balancing her pencil between her arms, she wowed everyone, bagging the prestigious Nicholas Maxim Special Award for Manuscript Penmanship against 50 other kids with disabilities.

Her principal marvels at her determination, calling her ‘vivacious’ and ‘no-excuses.’ Anaya’s writing? It’s so good that the competition director was stunned, saying it matched someone with hands.

But this is just the beginning for Anaya. She dreams big—soccer, karate, gymnastics. If acing penmanship without hands is any clue, this unstoppable dynamo is set to conquer the world.
