I’m thrilled to be participating in 2026 Bank of America Chicago Marathon, a fundraiser supporting Unite 2 Fight Paralysis! I’m passionate about this cause and need your help! Every donation—big or small—helps me reach my fundraising goal and directly impacts this important cause.
Here's how you can help:
Donate: Contribute whatever you can. No amount is too small!
Spread the Word: Share my fundraising page with your friends, family, and social networks. Let’s spread awareness so we can raise more!
Thank you for standing by me in this effort. Your support means the world to me!
As a PhD student working to understand and restore neural function across neurological injuries and diseases, I see firsthand how critical funding and awareness are to advancing research. That’s why I’m proud to support Unite 2 Fight Paralysis.
Their mission - to unite and empower the spinal cord injury community through advocacy, education, and research - reflects the kind of impact I hope to make through my own work. They are fighting for a future where everyone has access to treatments that restore health, function, and independence, while uplifting the voices of those living with paralysis.
Running the Chicago Marathon with their team is my way of contributing to that vision and helping move this important work forward.
