13 Bonus Years. A Lifetime of Purpose.
Honoring Survival — Powering the Lifesaving Mission of Heartfelt
For more than 26 years, my life’s purpose has been crystal clear:
To prevent sudden cardiac death through early detection and education.
I’ve dedicated everything to building Heartfelt, a nonprofit I founded to make sure no child, parent, athlete, or loved one dies from a potentially detectable — and often preventable — heart condition.
- We’ve screened over 60,000 hearts.
- We’ve helped save more than 1,000 lives.
- And we’re not stopping anytime soon.
Thirteen years ago, while continuing the work I’d been doing to save others, it suddenly became the fight to save myself. I needed emergency open-heart surgery to save my own life. It was terrifying, humbling, and life-altering — but it was also clarifying.
It reminded me just how fragile life is — and how vital this mission has always been.
I survived. And I’ve spent the last 13 bonus years using this second chance to deepen my commitment, expand our reach, and save even more lives.
Why I’m Asking for Help Now
After decades of service, Heartfelt urgently needs financial support to continue our lifesaving work. We’re preparing for a major season of screenings, but several critical machines are failing or outdated.
We need new screening equipment — including EKG and Echocardiogram machines — as well as funds to cover operating expenses that keep our programs running smoothly.
Every donation helps us keep screening.
Every screening could save a life.
And every life saved honors not only my survival — but the memory of those we’ve lost.
Join Me
This campaign marks my 13th “Heartiversary” — 13 years since I survived what could have ended my story. But instead, it gave me more time. More reason. More heart.
Now, I’m asking you to stand with me.
By supporting Heartfelt’s mission, you’re not just making a donation — you’re joining a movement to save lives, protect families, and prevent heartbreak. Every dollar you give helps us reach the next person who needs a screening, the next family who needs hope, the next heart we can save.
Together, we can keep more hearts beating.
Please give what you can, share this campaign, and be part of a legacy of survival, service, and hope.
