Running the 2026 TCS NYC Marathon is an incredible honor, but this race is about so much more than 26.2 miles for me.

I’m proud to be running with Team NORD’s Running 4 Rare to support individuals and families affected by rare diseases. So many people in the rare disease community face challenges that most of us never see... long roads to diagnosis, limited treatment options, and the feeling of not being seen or understood. They deserve support, advocacy, and hope.

That’s why I’m raising $7,500 for the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD). Every dollar helps fund resources and advocacy for people navigating life with a rare disorder.

Training for this marathon will push me physically and mentally, but I know every mile of this race has a bigger purpose. I’ll be running for families who need answers and for a community that deserves to be heard.

If you’re able to give, thank you from the bottom of my heart. And if you can’t donate, sharing this page would mean so much too. Every bit of support helps make a difference.

Thank you for being part of this with me. 💙
