About Me

I was born with a bicuspid aortic valve but wasn't diagnosed until I was 17. My heart has been strong until a year ago when I started getting very tired and short of breath. I am looking forward to feeling better and being able to really run, something I have never been able to do. I trust that God is going to walk me and my family through this journey. Thank you for your support every step of the way.
