Fearless Hearts
Why I'm Fundraising
I'm excited to be nominated for Go Red for Women's Woman of Impact campaign. As part of this year's class of changemakers, I've brought together a team that's working to make the greatest impact possible on women's health. We will be raising much-needed funds for the American Heart Association and working to improve the health of our communities. I hope we can count on your support!
In 2004, Go Red For Women was born as a campaign to raise awareness among women about their greatest health threat — heart disease. Slowly, the campaign grew into a movement bringing together thousands of women. Go Red for Women is the trusted, passionate force for change. It provides a platform for women and their families to lead healthier lives and transform communities. It's not just about wearing red. It's not just about sharing heart-health facts. It's about:
- Providing opportunities for women to take charge of their health
- Building communities that support access to healthy choices
- Demanding equal access to health care for all women and their families
- Increasing women in STEM in upcoming generations
Our team is focused on preventing heart disease and stroke. We're promoting healthy lifestyles, building awareness and raising critically-needed funds to support research and education initiatives. Cardiovascular diseases, which include heart disease and stroke, claim the life of a woman about every 80 seconds. We hope you will join us on our mission because about 80% of these diseases may be prevented.
The time is now. Women are leaning into the idea that when we take a stand, commit, and work together, real change is possible. To support my campaign, click on the Donate to Nominee button below.
Houston Woman of Impact - Spring 2026
Fearless Hearts
I’m honored and incredibly excited to be nominated as a 2026 Woman of Impact for the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women campaign.
This mission means a lot to me. I am a stroke survivor, and I’m here today because of God, the amazing medical teams who took care of me, and the advances in technology and research made possible by generous donors. I am alive and thriving thanks to innovations that many people never see. When you support this cause, you’re not just funding science—you’re saving lives like mine and helping millions of others, including people you may know and love.
Cardiovascular disease remains the #1 killer of women, and too many don’t recognize the signs until it’s too late. That’s why my team and I are raising critical funds and awareness to help women understand their risks and protect their health.
This is where you can make a life‑saving difference.

Let’s Go Red, save lives, and change the story for women everywhere.
From the bottom of my heart—thank you.
