About me!

I’m a proud wife and mother of 8-year old twin boys, Keaton and Grady who are on the Autism Spectrum and their little sister, Isla. I’m a NICU nurse and the Founder of a 501c3 nonprofit, Raising Harts, that provides mentorship, community and support for families raising Autistic and neurodivergent children.

As a parent, we face unique challenges that require an immense amount of patience, love, and support. We are constantly advocating to ensure our children have the best resources they need to thrive. 

But being a mom of autistic twins is no easy task, and I could use some help. That's why I’ve decided to take on the Doug Flutie Disney half marathon as a way to raise funds for Raising Harts and our mission. I know firsthand the difference that these resources can make in the lives of families like mine.

Tell your donors who you are and why you are running!

It’s been a few years since I’ve put on my running shoes and I’ve NEVER run a half marathon. I’m ready to challenge myself on behalf of Keaton, Grady and Isla because they are my inspiration.

Join me in my mission to make a difference in the autism community. Your donation will not only help me cross the finish line, but it will also help provide vital support to those who need it most. With your help, we can ensure that every child, like Keaton & Grady has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
