Running has always been a bit of a passion project for me. I started running competitively at a young age and found it a great way to keep in touch with friends and connect with family, many of whom also enjoy running. It’s been a lifelong dream of mine to have the opportunity to run a marathon. After college I moved to NYC and now live in the Financial District. I run by the 9/11 memorial often and am struck by both the sheer magnitude of lives that were lost that day and the strong resilience the city has shown in the wake of this tragedy.
I will be running the TCS 2024 NYC Marathon this year with Answer the Call. I became involved with Answer the Call in 2022 through various volunteering events and have had the opportunity to meet many first responders and their families. I am moved by their incredible sacrifice, dedication, and selflessness.
I am grateful for all who are supporting me with this endeavor, and looking forward to helping grow Answer the Call’s message. Answer the Call has now provided me the opportunity to give back, and I will do my best to make everyone who supports me proud. Thank you in advance for your generous contribution and support.
