A little about me.
The trailblazer: I’m a mom of 2 kids Gunner is 7 yrs old and Emma is 11 yrs old. I’m also a wife to my fellow trailblazer partner, Andrew and I’m a nurse in the ICU. I’m so excited to crush this challenge and make a difference for children with critical illnesses!
My experience: I started my hiking journey by taking the secret stairs one day in La Mesa CA. Little did I know my hiking journey would start right then and there. I love the feeling of being free and adventurous, not knowing what’s up ahead and just tracking onward to figure it out. It’s all for the adventure and in the end it’s for the memories.
Being a nurse I see adults with critical illnesses all the time. I couldn't imagine having a child in that bed. The unknown test results, the pending surgery outcomes, the unknown discharge dates…it seems unfathomable for a child to have to deal with all of that. If I can make a difference in their life by raising money for their ultimate wish in their life then count me in!
