We are united in our mission to offer relief to families fighting childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer.

President Dani Wolf

Dani.11.2024

Dani (Mama Wolf) is the mom of a cancer survivor and 4 cancer sibling warriors.  Dani has lost many loved ones to cancer and cares deeply for those who have experienced that loss.  She enjoys the beach, mountains, hiking, paddle boarding, reading, Yoga, and Pilates.  She adores her loyal dog who never left Jackson's side while he was at home during chemo.  Dani is currently working toward a Bachelor's Degree in Child and Family Relations.  She volunteered as the Head Registrar for Impact United Recreational Soccer Club from 2013-2023.  She has also been the Office Manager at Harding Financial Partners since 2017 and will be forever grateful for her employer who so graciously accommodated her hectic schedule while Jackson was in treatment by allowing her to work from the hospital and home, allowing her to keep her job and supporting her during the hardest time of her life.

Vice President Julie Cantera

Julie is no stranger to the multifaceted cancer world as she supported both her husband and daughter through the treatments and aftermath of stage four cancers.  Her understanding and knowledge of the needs of patients and families grew exponentially during these years and she knows that Wolf Haven Foundation can offer the resources and respite many teens and young adults are searching for.  Julie begins her days before the sunrise hiking, ski touring, or sledding the canyons near her home.  She also enjoys mountain biking, backpacking, tennis, travel, reading and spending time with her family.  Julie has volunteered for numerous organizations including Serve Refugees, Granite School District PTA, and the Salt Lake Swim and Tennis Club.  She currently is working for Hale Center Theater in the box office which fits her personality perfectly as it combines her love for people with the local theater community.

Since she was young Cara has always had a passion for creating beautiful spaces. She has always been very in tune to the feeling they can create. Her style has been honed through her travels throughout the world. The time she has spent in the English countryside and the East Coast have been particularly influential.  Cara spends as much of her free time as she can with her husband, Tom, and their 5 beautiful children and 2 dogs, their cat and horses. Whether it’s enjoying time in their own home or traveling, they love being with their family.  Cara loves riding horses and seeing her children share in the same passion.

Emily Gould

EmilyGould.10.2024.jpg

Emily M. Gould loves to discover as much as possible about people, cultures, emotions, and the world around her. Emily has been writing for over 20 years. Upon her daughter’s cancer diagnosis in September of 2015, writing became less of a hobby and more of a coping mechanism that she used to understand and learn more about herself and the unfamiliar situations her family found themselves in. The more Emily wrote about this foreign world and the lessons learned, the more people listened. Her words have spanned across nations and touched the hearts of people all over the globe. Emily believes in using the platform she has been given to spread love, kindness, and empathy, as well as taking the opportunity to educate those who haven’t been afflicted with cancer about the details of the disease in hopes of spreading awareness and love for those who fight for their lives every single day. With her husband Kris by her side, Emily is always up for any adventure that life has to offer.  The couple, along with their children, enjoy camping, hiking, boating, laughing too loud, and just being together. Emily is also the author of two nonfiction books, “Turning Weeds Into Wildflowers” and “It Gave Me You”, and a children’s book “It’s Okay If I’m Not Okay”. You can follow Emily on Instagram @emily_m_gould to see her latest projects.
