Kyle Maynard

Keynote Speaker: Entrepreneur, Best-Selling Author & Award-Winning Extreme Athlete; First Man to Bearcrawl to the Top of Mount Kilimanjaro

Kyle Maynard Biography

Kyle Maynard is an entrepreneur, speaker, best-selling author, award-winning extreme athlete, and the first man to bear crawl to the top of the highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro (19,340 feet), and the summit of Argentina’s Mount Aconcagua (22,838 feet), the highest peak in both the Western and Southern Hemispheres.

Born with a rare condition known as congenital amputation, that left him with arms that end at the elbows and legs that end near his knees, he learned early on to live life independently and without prosthetics. Maynard thrives on physical challenges and is a champion wrestler, CrossFit Certified Instructor and gym owner, competitive Mixed Martial Arts fighter, world record-setting weightlifter, and skilled mountaineer.

He is on a mission to make the world a better place and to inspire others to do the same by sharing his story and living by example. He passionately supports numerous charities and commits time and resources to work with wounded and recovering U.S. military veterans.

Maynard is the New York Times best-selling author of his life story, “No Excuses,” and the focus of the moving ESPN documentary, “A Fighting Chance.” His story has been featured on prominent television programs including "The Oprah Winfrey Show," "Larry King Live," and "Good Morning America," and has been viewed by millions around the world. He owns No Excuses Athletics, a gym that embodies his philosophy, and has been recognized by the U.S. Jaycees as one of the Top Ten Outstanding Young Americans, a testament to his impact as a leader and motivator.
