I’m running the TCS NYC Marathon as part of Team ExpandED Schools to help create more opportunities for students across New York City!

I started my career as a 7th grade science teacher through Teach For America in Nashville, TN. That experience shaped the way I think about opportunity and the impact that access to high-quality education can have on students.

When I learned about ExpandED Schools' mission, it felt like a natural fit to bring together three things I love: educational equity, NYC, and fitness.

Thank you for supporting both my marathon journey and a cause that means so much to me! If you are one of my 7th graders, please don't hate me for this photo :)
