I am thrilled to share that I will be running the TCS New York City Marathon on November 2, 2025, to raise awareness and funds for the athletes of Special Olympics New York.

This year, I had the incredible opportunity to be a first-time Special Olympics team coach—and it was a wonderful experience. Having spent seven years in Special Education, I've always believed in the power of inclusive learning environments, and being a unified sports coach brought that belief to life in a new way.

Our team united students who might never have connected otherwise, and together, they built friendships, confidence, and great memories. Special Olympics New York made that possible. I'm running the NYC Marathon as part of the Special Olympics New York Marathon Team to support this incredible organization.

Every mile I run—and every donation you make—means more chances for athletes of every ability to shine. My goal is to raise $4,000 to help provide these amazing athletes with opportunities they deserve. Join me in making a difference!
