Rocks of Unity

09/28/2026

There’s nothing quite like waking up the morning after a Bills win 🦬💙❤️ Then you realize that it’s deeper than football. It’s the people. The passion. The way Bills fans show up for each other, year after year, through every high and low.

As a lifelong Bills Fan, having a Rocks of Unity installation permanently part of the new Highmark Stadium means more to me than I can say. It’s still so surreal even after week 3 of the season.

Thousands of rocks all equating to thousands of individual stories. This is Bills Mafia. This is Buffalo. This is why we are one. Thank you Hope Winter and News 4 WIVB Buffalo for so eloquently sharing the story. Forever and always…Go Bills🦬

No words for you, Buffalo, other than thank you.

The amount of people who stopped to find the Rocks of Unity wall, took pictures of and with it, or simply just admired it finding rocks that speak to them…..thank you.

I don’t know what I quite expected for the launch, but it certainly wasn’t this. The outpouring of love has been overwhelmingly beautiful. This has turned from an art piece to a conversation piece, and I simply just stand on the step every game watching the constant crowds admire it.

The amount of people messaging me that they showed this on Amazon Prime during Thursday Night Football…….surreal.

Buffalo, I love you. Always have. Always will.

Go Bills🩷🦬

Nine years ago, Rocks of Unity was a lesson plan I created and taught to my students while in college. Today, it has now outreached to over 25 different countries and over 35 different states. Now, I’m standing in front of its permanent home at the Buffalo Bills Highmark Stadium.

More than 3,000 rocks. Thousands of people. Countless stories, messages, and acts of kindness-each one becoming part of something bigger than any of us could have imagined.

As a Buffalonian born and raised, seeing this installation come to life in the home of the Buffalo Bills feels like a full-circle moment I don’t have the words for. Twenty-year-old me, starting this project with no idea where it would go, could have never dreamed of this. However, this was never meant to be the story of one person. It’s the story of a community choosing kindness. Choosing connection. Choosing to see one another. Choosing to believe that small acts can become something powerful when we do them together.

But there’s something else I never expected. I never expected the reaction this wall would create. I never imagined the large crowds that would stop in front of it and just take it all in. The people who use it as the backdrop for their selfies. The fans who spend time searching through thousands of rocks until they find the one that speaks to them. The people who recognize a message, a name, a memory, or a little piece of themselves in one of these tiny stones, and then take a picture to share it with the world.

To every person who made a rock, shared their story, helped bring this project to life, or simply believed in the message: this is yours, too. 🤍

This installation is now a permanent part of Buffalo Bills history, and I will forever be humbled that Rocks of Unity gets to live here, surrounded by the people and community that helped build it. From a simple lesson plan to a permanent piece of our city. Built by many hands. Held together by one shared belief: we are stronger when we choose each other.

Bills by a billion. Forever and always. When you have the choice between being right and being kind, choose kind because you’ll always be right. 🤍

Daily Dose of Kindness: As you grow, you learn that not everyone needs access to every part of you. Be intentional about who you keep close, because the people around you can shape your peace, perspective, and growth. Choose those who celebrate you, encourage you, and genuinely want to see you become the best version of yourself. A meaningful life isn’t about having more people around you. It’s about having the right ones close🤍

Daily Dose of Kindness: Growth isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up, even on the days when motivation is nowhere to be found. Every small step, every quiet effort, and every promise you keep to yourself brings you closer to the person you’re becoming. Be patient with your progress, and be kind to yourself along the way💛

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor the courageous men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Their bravery, selflessness, and unwavering dedication remind us that true strength is rooted not only in courage, but also in unity, compassion, and service to others.

As we remember our fallen heroes, may we also honor their legacy by choosing empathy over division, unity over hate, and kindness over indifference. Let us stand together in gratitude, reflect on the freedoms we often take for granted, and continue building a world grounded in respect, hope, and humanity.

I never set out to build a project. I set out to spark a movement.

What started as a simple lesson plan has grown beyond anything I could’ve imagined: reaching 25+ countries, 35 states, embraced by voices at every level- including A-list celebrities, and now finding a permanent home in the new Buffalo Bills Highmark Stadium. Built by many hands, many stories, and one shared vision: kindness, unity, and belonging.

Honestly, it still feels surreal. Nine years ago, 20-year-old me could never have pictured this moment. Rocks of Unity was never about one person. It’s about all of us. The collective power of people choosing compassion, choosing connection, choosing each other.

Deeply humbled. Endlessly grateful. Thankful for every single person who has been part of this journey.

Now let’s step into history together. Bills by a billion- forever and always 🦬💙❤️

When you have the choice between being right and being kind, choose kind because you’ll always be right 🤍

8 years ago today, my entire life changed for the better. I was chosen as a guest on Harry Connick Jr’s talk show, “HARRY,” to spread the message of Rocks of Unity. It was then that Rocks of Unity reached not only a national but also an international following. At 21 years old, I never thought I would be given such a life-changing opportunity to spread kindness, diversity, and acceptance on such a platform. To those who supported Rocks of Unity from then until now, you are the reasons I do what I do. You all deserve to be recognized. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping to make Rocks of Unity what it is. Click on the link below to relive this monumental experience.
