Personal Journey

Our Why

Your support helps us create a world where every child feels safe, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential.

I was bullied in elementary school, junior high, and all four years of high school. It was hard, but I survived. I learned to tune out the negativity of those who bullied me to cause harm, while recognizing that sometimes people acted out because they were struggling themselves.

"No one gets bullied anymore."

When I shared my story with my daughter, she said something that really stuck with me. She’s a good kid, maybe a little naïve, but she’s never had to deal with being bullied herself. And that’s what I want for every kid—to never feel the way I did growing up.

But the reality is, bullying is still out there. Everyone deals with it in their own way, and I want to share my story to help others navigate through it. I want to inspire schools, volleyball clubs, churches, and communities to come together and fight against bullying in all its forms.

What I've learned in my 35 years around the sport of volleyball is that it's filled with incredible people—people who care, people who support one another, and people who make a difference. My hope is to unite the volleyball community and beyond to create a movement of kindness and understanding.

If my story can inspire even one person to stand up, speak out, or offer kindness to someone in need, then it's worth sharing.

I’d love the opportunity to share it with your school, your club, or your community, so together we can make an impact and show the next generation that bullying has no place in our world.

Join the Movement

Together, we can create a future where every young athlete feels safe, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential.
