We met on Instagram! The fact we both have Broncos is what brought us together, but we were drawn to each other from the beginning. Our personalities, our humor, our personal stories and our love of adventure are just a few of the many reasons we get along so well. After the 2023 Rebelle Rally, Megan knew she wanted to compete in the next one. The biggest hurdle would be finding a navigator that matched her competitiveness and complimented her personality. It was after an extremely brief conversation that we realized we each wanted to participate, and with Gloria’s landnav experience from her time in the Army, it was a seeming perfect fit. Within the week we had registered and began the long journey to preparing for the competition and raising the funds to compete. Over time, we discovered we were an even better match than we knew. You would think we had known each other our whole lives!

I have lived in 8 states! California Washington Idaho Florida Texas North Carolina Alaska Hawaii
As the spouse of a service member, much of my recent life has revolved around my young kids and where the Coast Guard sent us (most recently Alaska and Hawaii before California) so this is a unique opportunity to compete doing something I love now that my kids are older! I adore offroad and I thrive on competition so now that I live on the mainland, I gotta do it! This is my big hurrah before I turn 40 (I guess midlife crisis???? lol). I have managed to make my Ford Bronco my whole personality so it makes sense that I entered to compete in the Rebelle Rally after meeting Shelby Hall (who introduced me to the Rebelle Rally) on a Bronco trip down Baja and then meeting my teammate Gloria on Instagram through our mutual love of Broncos.
What inspires me is the women who have paved the way for women like myself, who are now able to participate in motorsports, and the next generation of women keeps me going and living out loud on social media so they KNOW these options exist.

Your mind & focus are far more powerful than you could ever comprehend.-Andy Frisella
I was a bugler for the Army Band.
When I served in the Army and worked in law enforcement, I was always around more men than women. When I learned about Rebelle Rally being for women only I knew it was a must for me to compete. To be around other like minded women who train and fight just as hard as you do, is one of the most amazing feelings that not many can say they have truly experienced.
My former commander, CW5 Jeanne Pace, who was the the longest serving female warrant officer, last member serving of the 14th Women's Army Corps Band, and among the longest tenured female Soldier in the Army's active duty component has been someone who inspired me in so many ways. She served 43 years active duty from 1972 to 2015. I’ll never forget one of the things she said to me as a young Sergeant. “Women who served in the Army before you fought long and hard for everything you have now but the fight isn’t over. You are strong and can handle the pressure that you must continue the fight for our future female Soldiers”. She was right.
