I’m thrilled to be participating in 2026 New York City Marathon, a fundraiser supporting Still I Run! I’m passionate about this cause and need your help!

This cause hits so close to home for me. In February of 2025, I lost my twin sister to suicide. She had been battling severe bipolar disorder in 2024 up until she left us unexpectedly. Then, in October of 2025, I lost my mom as well. She was battling every parent's worst nightmare. The loss of her child in their home. Losing my mom and my sister weighs on me every day, but running reminds me that I can choose myself, and I can still uplift myself. I am grateful each and every day to run and move my body. I choose to run even when I am scared, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the future, and I hope to keep sharing the life, character, and kindness that my sister and mom had. 

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!
