Our Team
​
Carly Oberle, President & Founder
​
Carly (Landon's Mom) is the founder of Let's Include Landon. Carly graduated from Miami University with a Major in Finance and a Minor in Entrepreneurship. Her career was in banking. As soon as her first child was diagnosed with Williams Syndrome (WS) her passion in life shifted to disability advocacy for her son. With Let's Include Landon she hopes to be able to help other children.
​
Carly had an active childhood - ballet, gymnastics, basketball, soccer, track and field, piano, and saxophone. Being part of activities and on teams had a positive impact on her life offering many friends, a sense of belonging, and confidence. Carly wants to be sure Landon and others like him have every opportunity she had and is hopeful Let's Include Landon will be helpful in creating some of this opportunity.
​
Carly is the Mom to Landon and his younger brother, Austen. She resides in Waxhaw, NC with her children and her husband, Mike.
