Michelle Steiner lives with an invisible disability.

From the start, many people told her she could not go to college, get her bachelor’s degree, get published or have the job she wanted. She has been able to do all of that and more! Michelle graduated from Slippery Rock University with a bachelor’s degree in Community Programming for Americans with Disabiilties. She has articles published in The Mighty, Non-Verbal Learning Project, Dyscalculia Blog, The Reluctant Spoonie, Kalopina Collective, Imagine the World as One Magazine, and Word Gathering.

Her photographs were featured in Word Gathering Independent and Work Ready.

Michelle has also published her first book The Lady Bug Who Couldn't Count Her Spots. She works as a para educator in a school with students with disabilities. She lives in Pennsylvania with her husband and two cats.
