Kayla is a woman in long-term recovery. Her recovery began in 2018 when she was faced with a decision to continue the way she was living or to fight to regain custody of her daughter. Starting her use at a young age led her to many treatment stays, jail, and eventually prison. Continuously searching for connection and acceptance, she failed at finding true recovery.

Kayla eventually found unconditional support at USARA by first becoming a participant which led to volunteering and eventually employment. She is able to use her lived experience to offer others the same unconditional support that she received and to help empower each person to find what is going to help them live their best life possible in recovery.

Kayla spends the majority of her time creating memories with her husband and children. Being involved in coaching her daughter’s soccer team has become something that she looks forward to. Kayla has also found that being on a fitness journey is refreshing for her recovery and has found a new love for challenging herself through running.
