Croc Stars

We are sisters, who live far away from each other, and are very excited to share this experience together. We both love music festivals and the outdoors. One of the best things about preparing for the Rebelle has been the amount of time we now spend together especially with our third teammate (Ford Bronco) aka The Croc.

Why the Rebelle? Why now?

Because women are the best!!! and off-road driving and navigation are amazing skills to have now and forever. My sister did the first Rebelle rally and ever since then I've been inspired to try it one day. Why now?...this just seemed like the right time for us in our lives...so why not?!

Who, or what, inspires you most?

My friends...Kelsey, Steph, Morgan, Bria, and Keri - for their amazing qualities and being badass ladies in their professions. My boyfriend, Charlie - for being a hard-working surgeon in his final year of residency. My sister, Angela - for being an all around amazing mom/sister/friend.

Fun Fact:

I can read minds.

Why the Rebelle? Why now?

It was a calling I couldn't ignore. A loud, internal voice kept saying, "Get a Bronco and enter the Rebelle Rally." So I put it on my vision board and slowly but surely all the pieces started falling into place. This last year has been a big self discovery and acceptance year. I think the Rebelle calls to me because I want to challenge myself and continue that journey of self exploration. And because it is a whole lot of fun!

Who, or what, inspires you most?

Seeing people reach their goals. The idea of taking small steps everyday to make the seemingly impossible possible inspires me.
