Carpe diem! I am living my life to the fullest through travel, personal fitness and discovering the best me!
We would like to thank you for supporting Deserae Gordon in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
I love being able to live life with no inhibitions. I dance like no one is watching and sing like no one is listening. Having lived much of my 20s and 40s seeing movies, magazines and hearing songs telling women how they should look and behave, being over 40 gives a sense of freedom to ignore societal norms. In my 40s I'm free to be me 100% - no matter what the world thinks. And I love every minute of it.
How do you stay fabulous?I work out 3-4 times per week, manage my diet and more importantly, I have fun. I love life and know not only do you only get one, but you can't take any day for granted. I truly love my life, smile and laugh daily and keep a positive attitude. My positive mindset keeps me fabulous!
What would you do with the $40,000?I am a single mother and my only son is going to college next year. He aspires to major in Computer Science to pursue game design. He has his sights on schools like MIT and GA Tech. I would love to be able to afford to send him to his choice. I would use every cent toward his college. Well...not every cent. I saw a best friend of over 30 years' mom battle breast cancer. I love that this platform supports this disease. I could not walk away without donating to to this cause.
