Strive for Change

Big Change is re-envisioning the education system to allow every child to succeed and thrive in life, not just in exams.

In 2022, I joined my first strive challenge for big change charity and summited Mt. Kenya! It was extremely rewarding with an incredible group of people for an amazing cause.

Pediatric Support

The children’s hospital of atlanta (CHOA) is important to us personally as our son has asthma and we’ve made a number of trips to the ER to help him breathe. We are very grateful for the doctors and nurses for the care our son has received during some scary sleepless nights.

Knowledge is Power

Helping young women understand their personal risk of breast and ovarian cancers through family history and knowing their bodies.

In 2012, I started an Atlanta Chapter for Bright Pink, the only national non-profit focused on risk reduction and early detection of breast and ovarian cancer in young women. In 2013, I became one of their first Educational Ambassador’s for Bright Pink with the role to educate, equip, and empower women to take charge of their own health.

Team Jogging for Jugs

After losing my Mother to breast cancer in 2002, I leaned into the disease to educate myself about my own personal risk and became passionate about helping other young women know their risk. I started a Race for the Cure team, Jogging for Jugs, and over 10 years, teams across 6 states collectively raised over $30,000 that funded mammograms and other health benefits for underprivileged women.

Hair Donations

In two different hair cuts (2005 and 2008), I donated 32 inches of hair to make wigs for children with cancer.
