I am raising money for Quiet Cadence because its mission reflects a lifelong passion that has shaped who I am. I was named after a woman who, in 1984, courageously started a therapeutic farm rooted in healing, connection, and care—values that have inspired me from the very beginning. Quiet Cadence carries forward that same spirit by creating restorative, nature‑based spaces where frontline workers, caregivers, and their families can find balance, resilience, and hope. Supporting this nonprofit is deeply personal to me; it honors my namesake’s legacy while investing in meaningful healing for those who give so much of themselves in service to others.
