About Me
As the reigning Ms. Classic Universe, I am honored to represent women who lead with resilience, faith, and authenticity. This crown is more than pageantry — it is a platform for purpose.
I am a mother of two, a woman of faith, and someone who has lived most of her life navigating a rare genetic condition called Gaucher Disease. What once felt like uncertainty has become the foundation of my mission: to transform hardship into hope.
Classic Universe celebrates women 30+ who embrace growth, sisterhood, leadership, and impact in every season of life. Through this incredible role, I am able to expand my platform and support causes that shaped my childhood and continue to change lives today.
My Platform
“Defying the Odds: Embracing Joy, Hope, and Healing in the Face of Illness” is rooted in my journey growing up with chronic illness.
Diagnosed at five years old with Gaucher Disease, my childhood was filled with doctor visits, needles, uncertainty — and ultimately, unexpected joy. Today, I share my story to shine a light on the invisible battles of chronic illness and encourage patients and caregivers to reclaim their strength, faith, and hope.
Through storytelling, education, interviews, and practical guidance — including navigating insurance and treatment — I aim to help others feel less alone.

Providing year-round support for children and families facing cancer and life-threatening hematological illnesses.
Like a true “base camp,” their programs offer rest, nourishment, encouragement, and strength along the climb. From support groups to joyful events, they help children remember they are still children — even in the midst of illness.
They were a light in my darkest days.

Offering grief support and wish programs for children and families navigating life-altering diagnoses and loss.
Formerly The Children’s Wish Foundation, New Hope granted my wish when I was a "Wish Kid" -- and created memories that became priceless for my family during a time when my parents didn’t know how much time we had left together.
Their work continues to bring hope to countless families.
