As a registered nurse, I've seen firsthand how quickly a life can change in an emergency. Behind every statistic is a real person, a family, and a story.

I'm walking because heart disease and stroke have touched so many lives, and because I believe everyone deserves the chance for a healthier future. The funds raised through the Heart Walk help support research, education, prevention efforts, and CPR training that can save lives when every second counts.

One of the most powerful things I've learned in healthcare is that small actions can make an enormous difference. Whether it's learning CPR, supporting research, or simply showing up for your community, every step matters.

I'm walking to help create a future with more survivors, more healthy hearts, and more families who get extra time with the people they love.

If you're able, I'd be incredibly grateful for your support. Every donation helps fund lifesaving research, education, and programs that make a real impact. Thank you for helping me make a difference, one step at a time.
