About the Queen
A Crown Is Not the Goal — It Is the Responsibility
Trena J. Myers is a woman who wears her crown with purpose.

Known as "The Zebra Queen," Trena is the Founder & CEO of Rare Wish, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing joy, resources, and visibility to individuals living with rare and invisible diseases.
