I’m honored and privileged to be running in the 2025 Bank of America Chicago Marathon with Team One Step—a cause that holds deep personal meaning for me.

Two years ago, my dad bravely faced cancer. We walked that path with hope, trying everything we could to help him heal. Though our journey was tough, it opened my heart to others fighting similar battles—especially kids who are far too young to carry such a heavy burden.

That’s why I’ve committed to fundraising for Camp One Step by Children’s Oncology Services. This amazing organization offers life-changing camps and experiences that help kids with cancer find joy, community, and healing beyond the hospital walls.

Here’s where you come in:

• Donate: Every gift—big or small—helps me reach my goal and directly supports these kids.

• Share: Spread the word! The more people we reach, the more lives we can impact together.

Once I hit my fundraising goal, Camp One Step will give me the chance to run the Chicago Marathon in honor of every child we’re helping. I’ll carry your generosity with me every step of the way.

Let’s do something powerful together. Thank you for believing in this cause and being part of this journey. God bless.
