There is more to this journey than the runway.
For more than 20 years, I have built my life around medicine, leadership, service, mentorship, and helping others believe in what is possible for them. Somewhere along the way, I realized I needed to keep believing in what is possible for me, too!
Modeling has become a beautiful reminder that there is no expiration date on becoming more of who you are. You can build a career, raise a family, serve your community, lead with purpose, and still make room for a dream that surprises you.
And for me, this dream connects back to something even bigger. Every new opportunity gives me another platform to support the work I care deeply about, including Physicians Working Together and our commitment to strengthening the future of medicine. But right now, this part of the journey comes down to one thing:
I must finish FIRST in my group to advance to the Semifinals!
I have been fortunate to hold first place throughout much of this competition, but right now I am in third place, which means I need my village! 🙏🏽💙
Dreams don’t expire, but this round does! 😆
If you have been cheering me on, voting, sharing, or simply watching this journey unfold, this is the moment I need you most.
Please vote and share, and if you know someone who believes it is never too late to step into something new, please send this to them too.
Let’s get back to #1 and take this dream to the next runway! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart! ❤️
