Our sight is something that many of us take for granted, however, the same cannot be said for influencer and motivational speaker
Molly Burke. At just 23-years-old, Burke has accomplished many incredible things including gaining the attention of personal care brand Dove and shooting a commercial with the brand earlier this year. Yet, what many might be surprised to learn is that Burke is medically blind and lost her sight completely at the age of 14. Burke was born with a condition known as Retinitis Pigmentosa, which deteriorates the retina and cause her to lose her sight slowly over time. But despite her challenges as someone with a disability, Burke has made a career educating both the seeing and visually impaired about living blind in the modern world. Burke proves time and time again that she can do everything a sighted person can, but that she may need to take a different path to reach the end goal. From creating flawless makeup looks, to managing several social media accounts, and even collecting tattoos—Burke shows that she's more abled than most. Keep on reading to learn more about Burke's story and discover why she gets tattooed.
