I was diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in 2015 when I was 18. Then, in 2018, at the age of 21, had a heart attack, which prompted me to get an ICD pacemaker. In 2020, I had to have emergency open-heart surgery. I've had two strokes over the course of these three surgeries as well.

Now, I walk to share my story and show everyone how resilient I am, especially to those facing similar or different challenges.
