My Story

As a first time marathoner, I couldn't be more happy to represent a group that has been a special part of both my educational and professional lives. Having the opportunity to volunteer with Special Olympics in high school, college, and work environments has been such a wonderful experience and to now have the opportunity to support #TeamSpecialOChicago in my first marathon is truly exciting. 

As a former athlete and a current physical therapist, I have always had a passion for sports and physical activity and the mission of #TeamSpecialO aligns with the mission that I live out my everyday - focusing on inclusion and helping individuals do what they truly love no matter their abilities. 

I would love any support - financial or encouragement - as I work towards this exciting goal!
