Hit My Goal

My Story

On November 2nd, 2022, my world was turned upside down with a breast cancer diagnosis. It was a journey I never expected to take, but it revealed something remarkable—the power of community, resilience, and hope. Through every challenge, from grueling treatments, surgeries and losing my hair, to moments of uncertainty, I was never alone. My family, friends, and an incredible community of supporters lifted me up when I needed it most.

Today, I’m proud to call myself not just a survivor, but a fighter. I’m more committed than ever to supporting others in their battles against breast cancer. This year, I’m excited to walk in my second More than Pink Walk, alongside my amazing family and friends. Together, we can truly make a difference.

Last year, thanks to the generosity and spirit of our community, our team was one of the top fundraising teams. Can we do it again? Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to a future without breast cancer. Thank you for standing with me in this fight—because we are STRONGER TOGETHER!
