Spoiler Alert: I Survived

Life hasn’t always been easy, but every challenge has fueled my purpose. Born in Westminster, California, I grew up surrounded by both love and the struggles of family addiction. Those early experiences shaped my passion for resilience, recovery, and storytelling.

My journey took a heartbreaking turn in 2017 when I lost my fiancé, Richard, to a sudden aneurysm. That loss sent me into years of addiction — but it also set me on a path of healing, self-discovery, and writing. Through treatment and sheer determination, I found my way back.

Today, I’m an author, recovery advocate, and founder of Dreamed On The Run. My mission is simple: to transform survival into stories, and to help others see that no matter how dark it gets, there’s always hope waiting on the horizon.
