Hi! I’m Reece Ihenacho, an 18-year-old track and field athlete at the University of Illinois. I throw the discus while pursuing a degree in marketing. Having overcome bullying, depression, and obesity, I’m really passionate about fitness and mental health. My journey inspires me to advocate for resilience and body positivity. I also love to write and talking with people, which is why I'm a freelance copywriter and a sales rep. Growing up in a single-parent household with two younger brothers—one with special needs—has shaped my commitment to service. I volunteer with the Veterans Network Committee and support N.I.S.R.A and the Special Olympics, promoting inclusivity and empowerment. As a Catholic and ambassador for HolStrength, I believe in the power of community and faith as well. I’m excited to connect with brands that share my values and dedication to making a positive impact!
