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.  

Throughout my teaching career I have worked with many students who have disabilities. The joy they have on their faces when we participate in the simplities activities in physical education class, puts a smile on everyone's face. To be part of this organization that supports these students and is promoting physical activity to all walk's of life, is truly an honor!

I hope that you consider supporting my efforts, and am so grateful for your devoted support to our life-changing mission.
