About Me

Born on the Fourth of July, my family should have known I would be a firecracker for it's the day when most Americans celebrate our nation’s freedom. For my family that day was certainly a celebration, but in the weeks that followed, it was also filled with great fear and obstacles that many doctors were unsure I would overcome. Deep within me is a passion to help, to be able to make a difference in the lives of other sick children is what I set out to do. I have personally raised over $90,000.00 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. While my time supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is my personal priority, I also make sure there is time for other volunteer projects. I founded, The Toy Clean-Up Project when I was ten years old. Starting out with a garage sale and now on our 6th annual golf tournament. I hope you take a few minutes to read some of the amazing moments over the years.

January 27, 2013 was
Folsom High School 3rd Annual Crab Feed,
benefiting the Folsom High Baseball Team.
This was a yummy way to help out!

It is so important to me to help everyone I can, and through the Toy Clean-Up Project I get to do this.  It makes me so proud when others want to join me in my quest.  Joanne Romero donated her 20year collect of wind-up toys, the over 4000 toy collection will be sold and the money will be give to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  I can't wait to share this story with the kids at St. Jude.  THANKS Joanne!
