UPSIDE Honors Brienna-Rae Cruz
Brie was (and in some ways still is, through the establishment of the Brienna Rae Scholarship) such a staunch advocate for mental health, awareness, fair treatment, and advocacy for those in need. She was passionate and dedicated in everything she did and spoke to you -- whether a friend, colleague, or client -- in a way that was genuine and made you feel listened to. Brie will forever be missed and fondly remembered by those who had the pleasure of knowing her, and her values and passions will live on through her like minded friends and family.
