My Story

I believe connecting people through sports and physical activity is instrumental in spreading a culture of inclusion, acceptance, and joy. Special Olympics Chicago/Special Children's Charities is working to create a more inclusive Chicago... one mile at a time!

Team Special Olympics Chicago is a group of runners dedicated to supporting thousands of Chicagoans with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and I am proud to be a member of this team.  

I always enjoyed my time serving on the Special Olympics Young Professional Board and volunteering at different events. I'm very proud to be running on behalf of a great organization and the tremendous athletes we support. I hope that you consider supporting my efforts, and am so grateful for your devoted support to this life-changing mission.
