My name is Dragonsky, an athlete, Season 19-Naked and Afraid Survivalist, Disney-published author, and Mental Health advocate from New Jersey! You're probably wondering what this is all about, eh? Well, this feral girl has decided, after coming back from the Annapurna Basecamp Trek, that I want to tackle the Seven Summits! Mountaineering has always been the end game for me, especially to become a guide.

This journey will start with Full Circle Everest (the first African American team to summit Everest) in March 2026! I just finished a LASH on the Pacific Crest Trail in October and am looking for support for Kilimanjaro. I work a part-time job as my mental disability limits me, and I have picked up a few partnerships, but I am still in need of support. Kilimanjaro will be my first of the seven, and going with a team is just what I need! The goal of all of this is to increase representation on the mountains for Black women.

I am a Black, gay woman who doesn't see many faces like mine, especially on the Seven Summits. No Black American woman has conquered this feat! I'd love to break the chain, but I am going to need your help to break it. Let's color this world and let little Black girls know that they can grow up and be mountaineers. Folks with mental disabilities, you aren't your diagnosis, and for Queers everywhere—let's spread the rainbow!
