Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration in business comes from the loss of my uncle in 2025 due to unmanaged high blood pressure that led to a hemorrhagic stroke. No one around him recognized the signs or knew CPR when he collapsed. That experience drives my mission to provide hypertension education, preventive health screenings, and CPR training so more people understand their health and are prepared to save lives.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by remembering the reason I started. Losing my uncle to unmanaged high blood pressure and a stroke reinforced how important prevention and education are. As an emergency nurse, I see the impact of these conditions daily. Knowing that my work can help people understand their health, catch issues early, and learn life-saving skills like CPR keeps me focused on making a meaningful difference in my community.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000, I would invest in equipment and community health initiatives: $8,000 for mobile phlebotomy and screening equipment, $5,000 for CPR manikins, AED trainers, and training supplies, $4,000 for marketing and community outreach, $3,000 for free CPR classes and wellness screenings, $3,000 for blood pressure cuffs and educational materials, and $2,000 for travel to provide services and health education in underserved communities.
