These interviews will help you get to know the person beyond their connection to donation and transplantation and show how the gift of life played a role in their story.

Watch the First Video — The Second Act: Connor Randall:
The first video introduces you to two-time heart transplant recipient, Connor Randall, from Arvada, CO. Connor’s passion is in the paranormal space, you may even recognize him from an Amazon video series, Hellier, a show that he helped produce and star in. Connor is also a drummer in a Denver-based punk band called The Ghoulies. Let’s not forget his day job though, Connor is a clerk at the Colorado State House of Representatives for six months out of the year. And… if it weren’t for the amazing #GiftofLife Connor received not once, but twice, he may not be here to share these passions with us.
