I’m running the 2025 NYC Marathon with Tina’s Wish, an incredible organization dedicated to funding research for the early detection and prevention of ovarian cancer.

I’m running in memory of my beautiful nanny, Janyce Gilman, who passed away from ovarian cancer, and in honor of my Auntie Susie, Susan Gilman, who bravely battled metastatic breast cancer. This race is my way of honoring their strength and helping make sure more women have the chance to detect cancer early.

26.2 miles will be a challenge, but it’s nothing compared to what these women, and so many others, have faced. I’m proud to support this cause and grateful for everyone cheering me on. Thank you so much all for the support!

Edit 8/11/2025: I’m so grateful to share that I’ve not only reached my fundraising goal, but we surpassed it; all thanks to YOU! Your incredible generosity and support have made this possible, and I couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you ❤️ thank you all!! I’m truly honored to run this marathon in support of all the beautiful strong women in my life.
