Today marks my 17th revolution around the sun and I can officially say that I have this whole life thing figure out. Just kidding just kidding!! But I have had many eye opening experiences in just this past year alone, specifically this campaign. The world of fundraising is a whirlwind and I have been extremely fortunate to have unconditional love and support from everyone who has helped me along this journey. Cheers to another year of learning and growth🍾

MY hero

Jan 10, 2020

With the Student of the Year campaign, I have the privilege of fundraising for our honored hero, Lily Gray. I got the chance to hang out with her tonight, and let me tell you: not only is she a fun-loving five year old, but she's also the bravest little girl that I've met. At just two years old, Lily was diagnosed with leukemia and after over two years of resilience, she's officially cancer free. Lily is the embodiment of true strength and bliss. When I grow up, I want to be as amazing as Lily Gray.
