My journey with Girl Scouts started with Troop 45 in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia (GSUSA overseas). My troop camped in the sand dunes, went scuba diving in the Red Sea, and raised funds & awareness for local causes that mattered to our community.
Girl Scouting taught me to be courageous, curious, and independent, and to love the people and places around me—it showed me that I have a role to play in making the world a better place and leaving it better than I found it. I am forever grateful to this organization for the woman it helped me become, and I am so excited to be running the NYC marathon in support of Troop 6000 this fall!
