About Me

Christian, Canadian, Canucks fan. Wife to Cory and mom to two kids (Olivia, age 13 and Silas, age 15), I was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease) in December 2016 at the age of 43. Before my diagnosis I was an elementary school teacher who enjoyed many hobbies including yoga, baking, reading and all types of fitness.

“Keep running the race that is set before you with endurance.”

Hebrews 12:1
