Rosemarie Rossetti, Ph.D. is a powerful, internationally known speaker, trainer, consultant, writer, and publisher who walks her talk. On June 13, 1998, Rossetti’s life was
transformed when a 3 1/2 ton tree came crashing down on her. Her life was changed
in that instant!
Paralyzed from the waist down with a spinal cord injury, Rossetti looked deep within herself and found new strength and new resolve. Determined to take back her life
and make a difference for others, she shares the lessons she has learned since that
fateful day, and demonstrates how to rise above misfortune and live life with
conviction. Rosemarie presents internationally to audiences from ten to several
thousand.
She is the author of the Universal Design Toolkit, Take Back Your Life! and
co-author of the Healthy Indoor Plant. She writes articles for national publications on the subjects of universal design, accessible design, disability inclusion, the value of
disability insurance, and motivational themes.
