We regret the shots we don't take...
Much love for all of the kind souls who voted, donated $$, shared, or commented on my posts about !!!
Sadly, I did not it to the Quarter Finals... It was an 8 week wild, roller coaster ride and I'm glad I competed for a wonderful cause.
I've still got plans for an Italy 2026 trip... and birthday spacation... my journey just looks a little different.
Peace, love, and poetry to all!

Quarter Final Voting ends 12/4 at 9pm! I'm competing with the Top 1% of contestants (out of 4,000+). I'm #7 in my group. Free votes are awesome... and donations will give me a fighting chance to make it to the Semi Finals! 🍾✈️ Link in bio!
I want to win Fabover40 because...
1. My mom was denied the title of Valedictorian because the student with the 2nd highest GPA was a boy... screw that!
2. My mom wanted my doors to be open, not closed. She wanted me to be strong, independent, true to my values and not sacrifice my soul just to make others happy. She wanted me to make my mark on the world and control my own destiny... to be President if I wanted!
3. My mom's heart stopped during my dream vacation in Italy and never had the chance to hear about my wild trip. I left part of my soul in Italy and I really want to get it back.
4. I know how scary it feels to get a call from the doctor after a mammogram recommending further testing to determine if you have breast cancer. I'm also thankful for the advanced breast ultrasound imaging that allowed my doctor to rule out breast cancer. I'm one of the lucky ones!
Each donation helps fund breast cancer research!
5. I ❤️ Centennial Park! As a kid, my brother and I spent lots of time playing at the park. Walking around the lake brings me peace and I'd like to make a donation in his memory.
6. Jan.4 is my birthday! I'd love to spend it in Scottsdale, AZ on a spa-cation!
7. I plan to set up a scholarship for a young poet in honor of my mom. She bought me my first journal and always believed in my poetry.
8. Last but not least, I'd like to buy a house in Nashville. Winning this competition will provide finds for a down payment.
9. I want to win for my 8 year old self, the little girl who believed all things were possible, as long as you were dedicated and committed to making your dreams come true!
