    Walking for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is near and dear to my heart. This was my first year, as my Mother In Law was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. This is another cause that I will continue to support as she is finishing treatment and we wait for a final diagnosis.

    I was honored to be chosen as a volunteer for this event, which benefitted the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

    My first few hours were spend on the 40th floor bottle change assistant, where I helped guide firefighters to their teams for bottle changes. I also helped by yelling to the teams the incoming climbers, so they'd be ready.

    The next few hours were spend on the top floor, finish line where I helped guide firefighters past the finish line. Helping them get their equipment…

    The next few hours were spend on the top floor, finish line where I helped guide firefighters past the finish line. Helping them get their equipment removed and settling in for some much needed rest.

    A humbling experience for sure, and I'll definitely be back next year!!
