About

Biography

April was involved in a train accident in 2001 that resulted in the loss of her left leg below the knee. While she lay in her hospital bed, a doctor told her about the Paralympic Games and three goals were firmly implanted in her mind. She desired to wear the USA uniform, break world records and win gold medals. Since her career in Paralympic track & field began in 2002, Holmes was honored to wear the USA uniform from 2002-2016. She has put together several undefeated seasons, broken IPC World Records 14 times and American Records 18 times in the 100, 200, 400 meters and long jump, won 3 Paralympic medals (1 Gold, 2 Bronze); and 5 World Championship medals. In addition to completing her MBA Marketing, and an International Coaching Federation accreditation Executive Coach, April is also a well-sought after motivational speaker. Ms. Holmes has endorsed many brands in her career including BMW, Deloitte, Jordan Brand, Hartford Insurance, 24 Hour Fitness, and AT&T.
