I became a Rock Steady Boxing owner and coach; influenced by a family member with PD. After 6 years of coaching my mother was diagnosed with PD. I have experienced PD from all sides and dealt with families in crisis, advocacy, navigating the advancement of the disease, and more. I want to help educate those who are living with PD. I have discovered a lot of People with Parkinson’s do not learn much from their doctors and need to know more.

Living well with PD means improving and maintaining quality of life and independence and understanding how you can best fight the progression of the disease.

“motion is lotion…..rest is rust!”

Knowing that the DPF can reach so many because of their public visibility and knowing that they truly put the effort where it needs to be – on the people with PD makes me excited – I know my actions and energy will be worth the effort.

My family and religion are important to me. I do still work full time and travel for work at times, but I enjoy cooking and reading and spending time with my family.
