Mrs. Springfield USOA 2021. Be the change, be a volunteer has been a lifelong passion of mine . Having been born an orphan back in the 60’s, I went through foster care as well as the adoption process here in the United States. Though I felt as an outsider looking in most of my life since I was placed with a family who had biologically born children in the family, I nevertheless, feel blessed that I had a roof over my head and food to eat. Having a family of my own is of high importance to me. Being able to overcome the diagnosis of infertility due to cancer cells within my reproductive organs, my husband Bruce and I were ecstatic to welcome the birth of our daughter in 2006. Feeling as if my life is bountiful I give back to others by serving as a volunteer for numerous organizations and helping orphans in need. We have personally provided and delivered care packages and supplies to orphans in Mexico and Africa. I feel that providing personal attention in the form of a party for the orphans is integral to providing hope for children to see that others do care. I am thrilled to be married to the man of my dreams, a mother to my miracle child and the referee to our two black labs.

The annual Denver Heart Association Heart Ball fundraiser was a fantastic event held at the Hyatt Convention Center Hotel.  The evening began by making a video  for Ferrari which aired on the jumbo screens during dinner.  My husband and I then greeted guests and shared his story of heart disease with other survivors and attendees.   During the cocktail party, we met literally hundreds of people who we talked to about The Mrs International Pageant and its partnership with Go Red.  We gave out over 200 Mrs Colorado International autograph cards!  Shortly after, we headed over to the auction where the bidding was fast and furious on items ranging from football momentos to spa escapes.  We then made our way to dinner where I made the presentation of the Ferrari key to the winning bidder.  The evening ended with dancing and desert.  What a night!
