I'm ready to run.

I was lucky to get a bib through the lottery to run the 2024 NYC Marathon however I would love to run for a reason beyond myself. I will be running to raise funds and awareness with the Parkinson's Champions to support the Parkinson’s Foundation. As a healthcare professional I have treated many individuals with Parkinson's and have any the toll it takes on patients and family's quality of life. As a human, I've watched my own father receive this diagnosis and have Parkinson's symptoms impact his daily life. 

The Parkinson's Foundation makes life better for people living with Parkinson's disease by improving care and advancing research toward a cure. Studies show that 2.5 hours of weekly exercise along with medication, can significantly improve quality of life for people living with Parkinson's. We run and will continue to run for people with Parkinson's because this disease not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Every dollar counts, thank you for your support!
