And his older brother, Josh.
Both have a form of muscular dystrophy, Becker, that those closest to them or who have known them for years are aware of, but others could miss.
But Jess Westman, a Hardin-Simmons senior, put his theater talents to the task of shining a light. Not just on muscular dystrophy but on the disabled.
He has written the script and music for "Wheels: An Original Musical," a production that opens Thursday at Behrens Auditorium at HSU. He also is the director, with the assistance of Dylan Scott.
Westman also is one of the main characters, Elijah. Elijah and his sister, Nancy, have an even more serious form of muscular dystrophy, called Duchenne. It primarily affects boys and begins its debilitating effects at an early age.
