THE FINAL SPEECHES OF MY HIGH SCHOOL CAREER!

If you’ve followed my journey at all, you know that I am passionate about public speaking—spreading the word about how we ALL have the power to make a difference and how we all need to be guided towards community and philanthropic outreach. I recently spoke at the Marin Teen Girl Conference, where I sought to empower hundreds of local teen girls to engage in their communities in meaningful ways. And, just last week, I was the keynote speaker at the North Bay Leadership Council’s annual awards luncheon, having been chosen as the winner of their Youth Power Speech Competition. What a huge honor to speak to this accomplished and welcoming group of business and civic leaders from around the northern San Francisco Bay Area! You can watch my speech here, and I hope you’ll share it with anyone who might be inspired!

As always, my speeches include powerful stories of some of my St. Jude friends battling cancer, so grab some tissues before you watch!

I absolutely love sharing my story and advocating for philanthropic engagement, so please reach out if you or someone you know might need an event speaker! For now, I am grateful for the many opportunities I’ve had throughout my childhood and teen years!

You can donate to St. Jude here, to help give hope to families facing childhood cancer.

Thank you for the support!
