Meg Johnson fell off a cliff and broke her neck in 2004, at the blossoming age of 22. She spent four months in the hospital recovering from multiple injuries and returned home without the use of her legs, back, stomach, or hands - a full quadriplegic.

Wheelchair bound and determined, Meg refuses to sit still. She joined Utah’s wheelchair rugby team, the Scorpions, for a time in 2004. In 2005, Meg discovered Ms. Wheelchair America; she bought herself a crown and competed at the national pageant where she won the Spirit Award. Returning home, Meg and her now husband, Whit, founded Ms. Wheelchair Utah. Meg currently directs this “inner-beauty pageant.” and her drawings are sold to help fund it.

As a motivational speaker, Meg shares her stories of triumph, inspiring people of all abilities with her motto: when life gets too hard to stand, just keep on rolling! Her story is shared in keynote speeches and has been covered by numerous periodicals and has been on the front pages of both: the Standard Examiner and the Deseret Morning News. She was the cover story for the February 2008 edition of Wasatch Woman Magazine.
