Cerebral Palsy (CP)

Emma Cooper-Williams

I See No Limits

My name is Emma Cooper-Williams and I am an 18 year old from New Zealand living with cerebral palsy. I am a singer songwriter and I have performed in countless gigs and events, and I even went on a 5 week scholarship to Japan in 2014 after winning a competition.
Music has shown me that there are no boundaries, sometimes we just need to look at things differently and adapt the ways in which we set out to achieve our goals.
This year I am releasing an EP which features five of my original songs. I also am the assistant teacher of a vocal workshop for young people with disabilities, because I want to show other young people that what they can bring through their passion of singing and performing adds a unique sparkle and lights up the lives of others.
