Dancing Ice King

Michael Finlay is a 27-year-old with Asperger's Syndrome and Dyslexia who has won Special Olympics medals in ice skating.  He loves to dance on the ice as well as doing freestyle.  He has been ice skating since he was 12.  He talks about the sport with passion, despite the fact that his social skills are developmentally delayed due to his Asperger's.

His other passion is Karaoke.  He loves singing ABBA's "Dancing Queen."  According to his parents, he has a rack full of medals from Special Olympics and regular professional ice skating competitions.

Keep up the good work, Michael!
