When I was little, I remember walking in the Heart Walk in Atlanta with my Aunt Sally and jumping for joy (literally) during Jump Rope for Heart in elementary school. Those moments sparked a love for heart health that has stayed with me. Fast forward two decades, and I now have the privilege of working in DC to advance heart-healthy and stroke-smart policies that save lives every day.
Over the past four years, my favorite campaign has been improving the “chain of survival” through comprehensive public policies—culminating last year in the unanimous passage of the HEARTS Act through Congress! I’ve had the honor of working with incredible advocates from across the country, sharing their personal stories on Capitol Hill, and collaborating with colleagues who amplify our message every day. The passion, energy, and impact of this campaign are truly unmatched.
Now, I’m asking you to join me. By donating to my fundraiser for the 2025 Heart Walk, you can help create a Nation of Lifesavers. Your gift will fund groundbreaking research, support lifesaving programs, and help people live longer, healthier lives.
I can’t do this alone—but together, we can make a real difference. Once you donate, join our nationwide network of advocates at heartpowered.org and be part of something that literally saves lives.
