POSTS STORIES REELS

this is the hardest post imaginable.
my dad, my inspiration, my light, my best friend in the whole wide world tragically left this earth friday night, september 19th. a senseless act of violence that no one should ever have to endure.
my dad was the most amazing, loving, resilient human being to ever walk this earth. i would often say he had 9 lives because of all of the crazy shenanigans he would get into. he would give the shirt off of his back to a stranger, help his friends and family at any hour of the day with whatever it might’ve been, and bestowed the most powerful wisdom upon me with each and every conversation that we had. from being my soccer coach, to my coach in life he taught me to always be humble, to be tough, to be honest and to live everyday like it was your last.
we went on many “famous campouts” while growing up twice a year, which were some of my fondest childhood memories as many of my friends would agree…they were iconic.
my dad LOVED lightning hockey, i can’t even count how many games and watch parties we could go to and just scream at together.
he was such a huge influence in my musical career. from such a young age i remember listening to led zeppelin, the doors, deep purple, ozzy, jimi hendrix, stevie ray vaughan and one of his favorites… blue oyster cult which as many of you know he still drew the blue oyster cult symbol EVERYWHERE he went. my dad was my biggest fan, he was at every single gig, recital, talent show, battle of the bands, you name it. he was front row screaming and cheering as loud as could be. he was always taking countless pictures and videos and in more recent times his favorite thing to do…facebook live. i appreciated the support and unconditional love my dad had for me so much. there are no words that can convey the amount of love i had and still have for my dad. he was genuinely the greatest person i knew.
i’ll always love you dad, i will honor you forever and take you with me all the way to tampa stadium like you always said…thank you for being the greatest dad in the entire world. i would choose you to be my dad in this universe and the next.
i’ll always be your “yute”…i love you dad.❤️ by @gnarly__karly

trying to put into words what this last year has been is nearly impossible. losing my dad so young when we had so much more life left to live together is so unfair. but his loss has taught me so many lessons and has shaped me into the woman i am today. there’s been so many ups and so many downs but a lot of good has come from this and i choose to see light in the darkness. losing my dad the day after my birthday is tough; but i wanted to do something that would celebrate both of us. i wanted to celebrate some accomplishments i’ve made along the way thru this journey of grief because there is power, beauty and strength in grief that a lot of people overlook and don’t give themselves enough credit for. i love you dad, i miss you more than anything and i hope im making you proud. ❤️🪽 by @gnarly__karly

you’ve been dumped🤸 by @gnarly__karly

happy one year anniversary to the sweetest love i’ve ever known.
my angel, my heart, my soul. this past year with you has been such a blessing. you brought light into my life when i couldn’t always see it myself, and you continue to lift me up and inspire me to be better every single day.
you’ve taught me so much about love, patience, and what it truly means to feel seen and cared for. thank you for being so selfless, so genuine, and so full of love. i’m beyond grateful for you, my greatest blessing, always ❤️ by @gnarly__karly

man oh man, where do i even begin!

this last year has been a series of very high highs and very low lows. stepping into this new project gave me so much motivation and confidence, and pushed all of us to heights we never thought we could reach. being part of @florawband has given me a new sense of purpose, and i’m so proud, grateful, and honored to share this experience with such an incredible group of people.
thank you to everyone in the band for pouring your hearts into this, and thank you TAMPA BAY MUSIC NETWORK FOR VOTING US 2025 FAVORITE ROCK BAND OF THE YEAR & BEST LIVE PERFORMANCE‼️🤘🏼 by @gnarly__karly
