The story of a 35-year-old man with autism and a passion for ski racing, and his dream-come-true of representing Canada at Special Olympics World Winter Games. In 2020, Cory qualified for Team Canada and was due to compete at the World Winter Games in Russia in January 2023. Those Games were cancelled. Cory then had to restart the 3 year qualification process which culminated at the 2024 National Winter Games where Cory qualified for the next World Winter Games in Italy in 2025.

BCAS Athlete of the Year!
After receiving the Canadian Adaptive Skiers Association last April, Cory has followed that up with the BC Adaptive Athlete of the Year!
Even though 2017 was mostly about fun skiing for Cory, the award does recognize his hard work and achievements at Special Olympics National Games in Newfoundland in 2016.
