athlete New Zealand

Amy Ellis is an inspiring 18-year-old T13 athlete from New Zealand who specializes in sprinting events like the 100m, 200m, and 400m. Legally blind due to a combination of nystagmus, coloboma, and convergent squints, she has overcome significant challenges to become a record-holder in multiple age-grade categories. With ambitions to compete in the 2028 Paralympics, Ellis recently set a personal best time of 29.30 seconds in the 200m during her debut competition in Australia. She is also actively involved with the Halberg Foundation, which has provided her with opportunities to engage in various sports and connect with others facing similar disabilities. Known for her determination and positive outlook, Ellis aims to demonstrate that anyone can pursue their dreams despite obstacles.
