I’m raising funds to attend the National Breast Cancer Coalition’s 2026 Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., where I will walk the halls of Congress to fight for critical research funding and access to care for breast cancer patients.

Right now, every dollar donated will be matched — dollar for dollar — up to $800.
Your gift will literally be doubled.

This Monday marks 11 years since I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 33.

Research is why I’m here.
Science is why I’m thriving.
The work of NBCC is part of my story.

This will be my third Leadership Summit — but my first as a graduate of NBCC’s Project LEAD. In 2025, I completed this intensive science training to better understand breast cancer biology, clinical trials, and how research funding decisions are made.

This year, I won’t just be showing up with passion.
I’ll be showing up with the knowledge to ask better questions, demand accountability, and advocate at a deeper level.

Eleven years ago, I was fighting for my life.

Now I fight so that one day, no one has to.

If you believe research saves lives — it saved mine — I would be so grateful for your support.
