Why I Fundriase

Being able to walk and run again after my spinal cord surgery showed me how powerful support and resilience can be. Running inspires me to give back to my community and help others facing challenges like mine. Fundraising lets me give back to my community and keep moving forward together.

Running the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon with Team Reeve

In September 2023, my life changed forever when I underwent emergency spinal cord surgery and woke up temporarily paralyzed. After weeks of rehabilitation and learning to walk again, I never imagined that one day I would be training to run a marathon.

Today, I'm incredibly honored to be running the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon as a member of Team Reeve, raising funds for the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation. Every mile I run represents resilience, hope, and the journey that brought me from relearning how to walk to chasing 26.2 miles through the streets of New York City.

My goal is not only to cross the finish line but to raise awareness and critical funds that support groundbreaking spinal cord injury research, advocacy, and resources for individuals and families living with paralysis.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you choose to donate, share my fundraiser, or simply cheer me on, your support is helping create a future filled with hope and possibility for so many others.

I'm Running to Help Fund the Next Childhood Cancer Breakthrough!
 

Last year I fundraised to run the RunDisney Springtime Surprise 10 Miler with Advent Health; this year I’m fundraising to run this year’s race with Cookies for Kids Cancer! It’s truly a blessing, and be because of this I wanted to continue to giving back to my community. I have started a new tradition of fundraising for a new charity every year for this race, so please help us reach our goal by April! 

From Walker to Runner! 
 


From walker to runner! AdventHealth has stood alongside me since my first visit to the ER through all of my PT appointments. Here I am supporting them! Help me reach my goal to run the Disney 10 miler!
