Judging Little Miss Atlanta Pageant

Saturday was a fun morning at the Little Miss Atlanta Pageant at the Doubletree Hotel in Roswell. I served as a judge for the event, congrats to my friend Amy Mixon for winning the community service award from the Miss Atlanta board, she deserves it for all the hard work she puts into this fundraiser, all proceeds go toward the Miss Atlanta Scholarship Program, a preliminary for Miss Georgia America.

Bone Bash!

What an incredible honor to be the emcee for the Arthritis Foundation's Bone Bash in Atlanta at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia Hotel. It was a costumed affair of spooky creatures, ghosts and goblins, dreadfully silent auctions, witches brew, bone shaking tunes, games and themed contests! The affair was generously sponsored by UCB - the next generation biopharma leader that is making radical breakthroughs with severe diseases like arthritis. This event was a wonderful demonstration on how chapters across the nation of the Arthritis Foundation can take a fun event to be a successful fundraiser for arthritis education, research and outreach programs.


Matt and I are blessed to have been asked to become board members of the Arthritis Foundation Young Professionals group! Thank you to all my friends at the Arthritis Foundation who support my passion and continue to bestow such amazing opportunities to help continue the fight against arthritis.

With a new friend, Aimee Busquet - she is the chairwoman of the Arthritis Foundation's Young Professionals Board. I truly admire her tenacity to keep "dancing through life!" Thank you for inviting us to join your board - we are HONORED and look forward to helping make a difference in the lives of others with arthritis!
Meeting Ms. Wheelchair America 2005, Juliette Rizzo! What an amazing and beautiful young woman. She believes that community participation is more than having a physical presence but is also about finding your identity through your involvement in and personal contribution to community life, she's very involved as a member of the Arthritis Foundation.

With my co-emcee for the evening - David Schneider of UCB (aka Mr. UCB!)

Arthritis Foundation Commercial

Today I was honored to be a part of the Arthritis Foundation's annual television commercial campaign that will help spread awareness of the walks and educational programs available through AF organized nationwide. I hope that by sharing my story with rheumatoid arthritis it will help inspire others to be a part of our program and foster education across the world to those who suffer from the pain of rheumatic diseases.
