❤️ Proud to Go Red! ❤️
It was an honor to attend and support the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women Luncheon—an inspiring event dedicated to raising awareness, advancing heart health, and making a difference in the lives of women in our community.

A special congratulations and thank you to Beth Flanagan and Candice Stewart, who served as Co-Chairs and provided tremendous leadership in bringing this meaningful event together.

I was also proud to serve on the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) alongside so many dedicated leaders committed to supporting the American Heart Association’s mission and improving heart health for women.

Grateful to be part of a community that continues to show up, lead, and Go Red for Women! ❤️
