Some time ago, I completed a series of 44 radiation treatments; I’d never, ever, been subject to a round of treatment like this. I was scared of the process, the actual treatment, and, of course, how I’d feel during this journey. Had I known two critical things, I wouldn’t have worried for one moment. The first is the passage in Isaiah 41.10, which reads in part: Fear not, for I am with you. The second is that I had a personal army of angels who cared for me on each of the 44 days.
From the moment I stepped into the clinic until my final treatment, my team made me feel truly cared for—they are like angels with how naturally they handle everything and how they understand patient reactions. Honestly, nothing could have prepared me for just how extraordinary they are. Each member has become a part of my extended family, and I can’t imagine what I would do without all of you.
I’m a dreamer at heart, proudly born and raised in San Francisco—a city that covers just 49 square miles but was heaven on earth for me. Every corner of The City (as we natives affectionately call it) has been a part of my life. No area ever felt too distant. With wide eyes and an open heart, I’ve always welcomed the world around me. I find joy in creativity, wonder, and discovering new possibilities—whether that’s through international work adventures or dreaming up the next exciting idea. Even though San Francisco was my hometown, my passport has taken me to many amazing places and introduced me to wonderful people, shaping me in countless ways. I carry pieces of these experiences and friendships with me wherever I go. Above all, I treasure my family, friends, and those small, meaningful moments that keep my spirit alive and thriving. I never want my curiosity to fade away.
