Welcome to My Personal Page

WARRIOR WOMEN & THEIR TRIBE TEAM


In July of 2022, I was diagnosed with Stage 1 Triple Negative DCIS Breast Cancer. Triple-negative accounts for only 10-12% of women who get diagnosed. Doctors have no idea what caused the tumor leaving no clues on how to treat it, other than throwing the kitchen sink at it. I completed four rounds of chemo and had a double mastectomy with an aesthetic flat closure (no reconstruction). We like to call ourselves “flatties”.

 

Breasts don’t make women beautiful and for sure don’t define our femininity.

 

The Breast Cancer Team I have assembled is called “Warriors Women & their Tribe”. As a photographer, I wanted to give back to this community while allowing myself to heal from this cancer journey —these brave folks who were given no choice but to fight. As I brainstormed what the project may look like the idea snowballed into what I feel is my life’s purpose.

 

On May 1st, 2023 “Warrior Women Portraits” was created.

 I’m offering Cancer Warriors a UNIQUE and EMPOWERING Portrait Experience

Celebrating their strength, beauty, and resilience through stunning imagery.

This year I have been graciously selected as a “Portraits of Hope Ambassador” for the Oregon & Washington areas. Two other amazing ladies giving back to the cancer community will be alongside me hitting the town to raise awareness and share our stories.

 

The funds I'm raising will sustain critical research and provide services for people trying to cope with their breast cancer journey like me.

 

Breast cancer has affected too many people, and the numbers keep growing. Not to mention the age keeps getting younger and younger.

Welcome to our Team Page. We've formed a team because this cause is important to us. We want to help. And walking and raising money in our local American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event is the best way we can do that. We all have different reasons for participating but we share a determination to help save lives from breast cancer.

There are so many ways that the money our team raises helps. It’s helping fund innovative research. It's providing free information for people dealing with the disease. It’s providing rides to treatment and places to stay for people who have to seek treatment far from home. In short, our money is helping save lives. Consider donating to our team and helping advance the cause.

How We Support the American Cancer Society

Of course we walk in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event. And we solicit donations from family, friends, and other supporters. But we also schedule fundraisers in lead-up to the big event. Bake-sales, car washes, and countless other types of events. And we promote those on social media, through Facebook and Twitter, by word of mouth, and through flyers at work and around the neighborhood. The success of fundraising events depends on two things - hard work and getting the word out. And we're out to do both. Keep an eye out for our fundraising events.

Join us. Donate today. Or walk with us.
