Please support me as I run the LA Marathon in honor of my mom, while raising awareness of brain aneurysms and funds for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation. In June 2026, just weeks after graduating college, my life changed forever when I unexpectedly lost my mom to a ruptured brain aneurysm. One moment, I was celebrating one of the biggest milestones of my life with her by my side, and the next, I was facing a future I never imagined without her. My mom was someone who truly loved life. She loved her family, her friends, traveling, and making the most of every moment. She was my biggest supporter, always cheering me on through every milestone. Losing her so suddenly taught me just how fragile life is and how quickly everything can change. 1 in 50 people in the United States has an unruptured brain aneurysm, and approximately 30,000 people suffer a rupture each year. Nearly half do not survive. Before losing my mom, I never imagined my family would become part of these statistics. I'm running not only to honor my mom's memory, but also to help prevent other families from experiencing the same heartbreaking loss. By supporting the Brain Aneurysm Foundation, I hope to help fund research, promote early detection, and spread awareness that could save lives. Every mile I run will be for my mom, and every donation will be a step toward making a difference. Brain aneurysms can be treatable when detected early. Awareness can save lives. Thank you for helping me turn an unimaginable loss into something meaningful.
