Tell us about your family.
I've been married to my husband Jonathan for 24 years. We have twin 22-year-old twin boys, Ryan and Jonathan, and a daughter, Lizzy, who is 18. 

Why did you join RTCF?
I started originally with Team CMMD in 2015, after experiencing a dear friend from the Fire Company that I volunteer with receive a Pancreatic cancer diagnosis. He ultimately lost his battle. I knew change needed to happen. I choose to advocate for all of the fighters by bringing awareness to all types of cancer. 

What impact do you want RTCF to have on the community?
My hope is that through community engagement we can show others how much helping cancer fighters is needed. Sharing resources through informational and financial assistance, we can give a voice and hope to so many fighters who feel they are alone.

My husband Glen is a graduate of Downingtown, and we're raising our two amazing kids here. Our son AJ is thriving at the STEM Academy, and our daughter Gabby is enjoying her time at DMS. We have a ton of family and friends in the area , and love being part of this vibrant community.

Why did you join RTCF?

I joined RTCF because I believe in the power of community and the importance of giving back. It's vital to share our time, treasure, and talents to make a positive impact. Plus, I want to set an example for my kids, showing them the difference we can make in the lives of others.

What impact do you want RTCF to have on the community?

I hope RTCF continues to be a beacon of support and generosity in our community. By fostering a spirit of giving and involvement, I want us to create a ripple effect of kindness and compassion that touches every corner of Downingtown and beyond.
