Summary

I grew up in Monroe Township, New Jersey in a strict Catholic environment that left me questioning my worth. I experienced painful moments from early childhood – a disturbing encounter with a priest and relentless bullying – that led me down a path of rebellion, New Age practices, and self‐destructive behaviors. My life took a dramatic turn when I was hospitalized with a chronic autoimmune disease, and the physical and emotional pain pushed me to my limits. In the midst of a traumatic breakup, I encountered Jesus on the bathroom floor, where His overwhelming love broke through my despair and transformed my life. That pivotal moment ignited a journey of healing and renewal, leading me to embrace faith wholeheartedly through prayer, worship, and baptism. Today, I share my testimony to remind others that no matter how broken or lost you feel, Jesus’ power to restore and redeem can bring new purpose and hope.
