knowledge over the last few years by helping many members of her club navigate both new and old paths in Base Camp.

She felt this role would merge both of her interests – mentoring others and increasing her Pathways knowledge.
I just love a spreadsheet. As our modern world can overload us, I enjoy assimilating information and presenting it in a format that is simple, meaningful and actionable. My experiences in Toastmasters have allowed me to enjoy the spotlight at times. This role is more behind the scenes, and it is my joy to contribute to the success of the district, and the many leaders who step up to make it all happen.
My “why” is service—loving and teaching others through every opportunity I’m given. I strive to live by example for my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, showing them what it means to walk in purpose and integrity. I want my life to reflect consistency, whether in moments of joy or challenge. I am shaped and strengthened by reading the Word of God, allowing it to guide my decisions and my heart. My commitment is to do what is right in both the light and the dark, standing firm in faith, character, and love as a lasting legacy for my family.
I became a Toastmaster because I wanted to become a more confident and effective communicator. As an oncology nurse navigator, I have seen how the right words can comfort, educate, and inspire people during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. Toastmasters has helped me grow not only as a speaker but also as a leader and a better listener.
I chose to serve as an Area Director because I believe in giving back to an organization that has given me so much. I enjoy encouraging others to discover their potential, supporting clubs in their growth, and helping create an environment where members feel welcomed, challenged, and inspired to succeed.
Toast of Las Olas completely changed how I see Toastmasters. Experiencing the culture, support, and opportunity in my home club showed me how something as simple as public speaking can bring a community together and transform lives. This year, I chose to serve so I can help create that same sense of culture in my Area—clubs where members feel supported to face their fear of speaking, connect more effectively with their audience, and grow in confidence every week
I chose to serve this year because I believe in growth through challenge and in creating an environment that brings out the best in everyone. Toastmasters has strengthened my confidence, discipline, and voice, and I am committed to giving back. My vision is to build an Area/Division where members feel supported, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential, where consistency, excellence, and genuine connection drive results. I aim to lead by example, foster strong clubs, and create a culture where growth is intentional, and every member sees themselves as a leader.
