When I was broken, God healed and redeemed me.

From Trauma to Triumph

I know what it feels like when life doesn't go the way you planned.

I grew up carrying the weight of early childhood trauma, and as the years passed, the losses kept coming — six head injuries, debilitating chronic pain from car accidents, and the heartbreak of watching loved ones leave too soon. The hardest goodbye was my mom, a strong, faith-filled woman who lost her battle with breast cancer. This book is dedicated to her.

I was baptized at 12 and always knew God existed — but knowing about God and truly knowing Him are two very different things.

In 2001, everything changed. A head-on collision left me wheelchair-bound, unable to care for myself or my children. It took a year and a half to walk again. Just weeks after the accident, the world watched in horror as 9/11 unfolded in New York. My husband, a firefighter, felt the pull to go help — but he chose to stay and care for our family. He is my hero.

It was in that broken, desperate season that I cried out to God — and He heard me.

That moment became the foundation of everything. Through chronic illness, through B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, through every storm since, my faith has only grown stronger. God didn't just heal my body — He transformed my heart.

Into the Light: Trauma to Triumph was born from that journey. My mission is simple: to walk alongside women like you, inspire you to move through your own healing process, and help you build a personal, unshakeable relationship with God.

You are not alone. And your triumph is coming. 💜 🦋
