We met at a meet and greet for women in production engineering interested in the Rebelle rally. Within 2 weeks we had interviewed, been chosen as the Rookie team for Toyota and were on a plane headed to Cali to the Roost for our first Rebelle U training. We learned alot that weekend about the trucks, mapping, the desert wind, and that twizzlers are a food group. This summer has been challenging to say the least. Julia has had some physical challenges that she has worked hard to overcome, because she was not missing the opportunity to compete. While Sheena has been the driving force to get the LC repaired and ready for the rally, her drive, vision, energy and enthusiasm and my hope is her countless hours of lost sleep will be well worth the adventure we’re going on. We are so excited to represent Toyota PE as the rookie team ’24 along side Sam & Becky and Sandra & Myra.

I wouldn’t be who I am today, if not for those I’ve loved along the way”
I have travelled to over 50 countries and swam in every ocean on the planet!
I am lucky enough to have been selected by Toyota, which encourages their team members to “Start Your Impossible”. This will be me starting my impossible. I really want to test my limits. This competition will take me to beautiful, remote locations and the navigational challenges will be thrilling and exciting.
I get inspiration from many places, but most of all my husband. His patience and persistence, even when faced with challenges inspires me to do better and be more patient and just enjoy the experience and not focus on the issues.

I pick up things with my toes.
After getting to know the other Rebelles at Toyota and hearing their stories and knowing how much Toyota promotes women in the workplace, I knew this was something I had to do. I will get to learn new skills and see beautiful places along the way.
My daughter inspires me every day, with her drive and her work ethic, she tackles every challenge with patience, understanding and a beautiful smile.
