Anthony Frisina has a passion for accessibility and inclusion. Born with Spina Bifida he has embraced a “person-first” mentality, a mindset embodied in his everyday life. “Adversity not only builds character it reveals it” and “It’s not about the amount of times you get knocked down, but by the amount of times you get back up” are two of his favourite quotes and they inspire the man he is today.
Anthony is a Mohawk College graduate in Enterprise Business; Office Administration Executive and when not working at Mohawk College as a Student Services Representative at The Square, he can often be seen with his wheels turning at Mohawk College. In 2014, he was inducted into an elite group as a Mohawk College Alumni of Distinction. Anthony has represented the Rick Hansen Foundation in an ambassadorial role. Anthony created Above & Beyond, a TV show on a local cable station Cable 14 and he is a published author.
Anthony Frisina is a testament to the power of character, breaking through barriers, so that he, along with the next generation, can enjoy an inclusive community, a community based on ability.
