Name: John B.

City: Mesa, AZ

Brain Injury: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)- night out with some friends. Had a few drinks and decided to drive my bike home. While driving I got flagged down by the police. Instead of pulling over I gassed it and lost complete control. I ended up crashing into a tree and boom blacked out!

Explanation of mask: My mask represents me. The left side is black with a cop car to represent my accident while the right side of the mask is yellow to show my recovery and my long hair flow before the injury. The tree represents growth over the years while also representing the cause of my injury. There are ups and downs, but I’ve learned to stay anchored through it all!
