I walk to honor two incredible women my family and I lost too soon—my mother and my niece. In 2017, my mom passed suddenly from complications of heart failure. Then in December 2024, we faced another heartbreaking loss when my dear niece passed away after a heart attack.
I walk because heart disease has touched my family in a deeply personal way. I walk to raise awareness, to support life-saving research, and to stand with others who have been affected by heart disease. I walk with hope that one day, no other family will have to experience this kind of loss.
Their strength, love, and light live on—and I carry them with me every step of the way
I Walk to Save Lives. Help me reach my goal today.
