Challenges and Opportunity
Skyler lives with CMT2A (Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease), a condition affecting peripheral nerves. Rather than simple muscular limitation, it creates neuromuscular fatigue where distal nerves in the feet, ankles and lower legs fatigue quickly, impacting coordination, balance and endurance, even when strength is present.
She describes it clearly:
“Even as an elite athlete I hit limits because of nerve fatigue, not muscle fatigue. Legs feel heavy or burning, balance can wobble, exhaustion comes faster than expected.”
To train safely, she adapts with shorter sets, lower load, frequent rest, careful monitoring of tingling and heaviness, and gradual progression in both gym and balance work.
Her resilience has been tested further in 2026, starting the season with a broken elbow that developed into golfer’s elbow, requiring a steroid injection and a temporary training reset. Despite this, she returned to finish 6th at the Yokohama World Para Triathlon Series.
“Living with CMT means adapting, learning and pushing boundaries safely. My nerves may set limits but they also show me how resilient and capable my body really is.”
From a partnership perspective, Skyler represents more than performance results. She offers sponsors a credible high-performance athlete operating at international level while navigating visible, relatable physical challenge in a transparent and disciplined way. Her story sits at the intersection of elite sport, adaptive performance and long-term athlete development — making her a powerful platform for brands aligned with resilience, innovation, health and human potential.
For sponsors, alignment with Skyler provides:
Association with a rising US Paralympic talent on a clear LA 2028 pathway
Authentic storytelling around elite performance under constraint and adaptation
Strong alignment with health, wellbeing, rehabilitation, medical and performance sectors
A compelling athlete narrative that goes beyond results into human resilience
Engagement with a high-performance training environment at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic system
She is not only building toward podium results but also shaping a narrative around what elite performance looks like when boundaries are constantly being redefined — a space increasingly valued by forward-looking brands in sport and health innovation.
