I joined the GenNow Network (formerly ABOA) in November 2020, initially becoming part of the Event Committee to help plan our first event after COVID. Over the following years, I continued my involvement and had the privilege of serving as the Jockeys & Juleps Event Director in 2023-2024. This year, I am honored to take on the role of President, where I look forward to advancing our mission even further.

My passion for GNN stems from a personal connection, as cancer has deeply affected my family just like so many others. As a Previvor myself, I consider myself fortunate to have discovered my risk early, and I’m driven to contribute to the fight against cancer and make a meaningful impact.

Outside of GNN, I’ve been part of the Tampa Bay Business Journal’s advertising team for three years. Community involvement is what fuels me, and I’m committed to staying active in various professional and charitable organizations. When I’m not working or volunteering, I enjoy golfing, playing tennis, traveling, reading, and binge watching shows.

I have been involved with the American Cancer Society as a volunteer for over 12 years and a part of GNN since 2019! I am passionate about the work ACS is doing and feel strongly that we all play a part in ending cancer as we know it. GNN provides a unique opportunity to make an impact in cancer patient’s lives locally in Tampa, as well as connections to other like minded professionals and mentors.

I attended the University of South Florida and graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor’s degree in Public Health and have been in Tampa ever since. My professional experience has been in healthcare administration and outside of volunteering with the American Cancer Society, my husband, daughter, and I like to travel, spend time outdoors and discover new restaurants in the Tampa Bay area.
