I’m thrilled to be participating in Vertical Cure 2026, a fundraiser supporting Scleroderma Foundation of California! I’m passionate about this cause and need your help! Every donation—big or small—helps me reach my fundraising goal and directly impacts this important cause. Many of you know my brother Stephen has been living with Scleroderma since 2007. He is one of the most courageous people I know and is an example of grit, determination, and relentless positivity while living with this autoimmune disease. He has channeled everything he has been through into helping other people with Scleroderma, running support groups in Kern County and connecting with people from all over as a board member with the Scleroderma Foundation. With your help, those at the forefront of research and science will hopefully one day find a cure.

Here's how you can help:

• Donate: Contribute whatever you can. No amount is too small!
• Spread the Word: Share my fundraising page with your friends, family, and social networks. Let’s spread awareness so we can raise more!

Thank you for standing by me in this effort. Your support means the world to me!
