Welcome to My Personal Page
Dear Friends & Family
In our lifetime, 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women will be diagnosed with cancer. I joined the SAA community so that, together, we can change that. I am challenging myself by swimming and raising as much money to fight cancer as I can. This is the second year I have been involved with Swim Across America (SAA). I was diagnosed with breast cancer during Covid, in August 2020. I am happy to report I am cancer free since Spring of 2021! Open water swimming was already my way to find peace and happiness. It became my way to cope and find joy during my cancer diagnosis and treatment.
SAA raises funds for cancer research. Please help me fundraise for Swim Across America as I challenge myself at new exciting locations Sea of Cortez, Baja Calif. Mexico & Catalina plus all around the San Francisco Bay three or more times a week!
