To celebrate my birthday this year, I will be joining my friends and coworkers in my 2nd Courage Classic as part of the Neonatal ICU team "Spinning Spokes for the Littlest Folks" and couldn't be more excited! Together we will ride to help fundraise and support our tiniest, but strongest patients.

I will be joining them in this two day event by biking the 78 mile Copper Loop over the very beautiful and scenic Rocky Mountains on Saturday July 15 and biking the 41 mile Keystone Loop on Sunday July 16.

Being a NICU nurse was my dream nursing job after college and I'm lucky to say that I've had the privilege of being one for the past 9 years. It can definitely be hard and trying at times, but seeing our little ones and their families get to graduate from our unit is the best feeling in the world and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

My individual fundraising goal this year is $500. Please help me achieve (or even surpass) my goal by considering donating to help Children's Hospital Colorado continue to support positive outcomes and healither futures for our young populatiom and their families. Every little bit helps!

Thank you so much for considering!
