Activist, Athlete, mother, wife, philanthropist, Olympian

This woman was born in Hayword California in 1971.

We’re going to get started with a quote - “You have to develop some resilience to get through things, and it’s not going to be instant,” she noted, adding that she never wanted to experience regrets about her effort, but “the prize on the other side is going to be worth it.”
