At age two, RJ De Rama survived cancer but as a result lost some of his vision. By age 30, he was legally blind in both eyes. In 2006, he was part of an all-blind team that completed an 18 mile outrigger canoe race in Kona, Hawaii. Because of that experience, he became a founding member of the Makapo Aquatics Project, a Move United member organization based in southern California. Later this month, RJ will also be presenting at the Move United Education Conference in Phoenix, Arizona.
