Portrait of Chris Meyer

Chris Meyer

Ambassador
California

Chris Meyer has served as a FARA ambassador since 2018 and dedicates his time to increasing awareness of Friedreich’s ataxia, helping others battling FA, and empowering the community. He enjoys all kinds of outdoor adventures and works for REI with his love and knowledge of nature and the outdoors. He is able to teach people how to get into the outdoors with any physical disability.
His favorite FARA events are any and all rideATAXIA events. Chris would tell someone newly diagnosed: “Life is difficult for everyone, but even more with FA! But don’t let it stop you. Keep your body moving”.
Happiness is up to you!
