My brother, Evan Yerega, has been a wonderful support over the past year in particular; I feel lucky to have, in my only sibling, such a level head and good heart. My parents, Michael and Holly, have shown us both how much strength and resilience we have in our blood, and I’m ever grateful for all they’ve done for me in my roughly four decades on this planet.
And, always, the three people who carry my heart with them everywhere they go: my husband, Scott, who took a big leap with me into this new career—never once flinching at the unknown—and our children, the best of us both, who bring to every day pure joy.
