I grew up in Mt. Vernon, New York, with a strong passion for both arts and track and field. Over the last 10 years, I've been training and competing, improving my abilities. I've had the privilege of training with Central Park Track Club for my 1st pro year. I'm currently on a new chapter in my athletic career by joining Atalanta NYC, and I'm hopeful for a successful and fulfilling future.

I’m from Delaware, Ohio, where I got my start in running as a short sprinter. The only high school record I still hold is in the 100m dash. I studied Chemistry and Journalism in college, and was conference runner-up in the javelin my senior year. In my spare time, I write articles for D3 Glory Days, explore local hiking trails, and play with my two cats, Pepper and Matcha.

The shortest race I've ever run is the 400m, and longest run is 18 miles. I typically prefer to run without headphones, but when I do, I love listening to running podcasts or my favorite musicians, Hozier and Dermot Kennedy.

I quit my high school cross country team after my Freshman year when my Coach shared that I would likely finish last at every race (his actual quote: “someone has to finish last”). After those inspiring words, I attended the University of Pennsylvania where I won a national championship as the varsity coxswain for the heavyweight rowing team. In building my business, I have incorporated the benefits and joy that sports and running, in particular, bring to friendship, community and success.

I didn't grow up running. In fact, I was pretty bad at most "traditional" sports. Yet, I loved being on a team and pursuing my personal best. Rowing during high school and college turned me into a runner toward the end of college. Ever since then, my ambition has been to help others unlock their potential - and to bring people together - through sport and fitness.
After starting my career as a corporate lawyer, I have followed my dream - working in leadership roles in sport and fitness for over 20 years. My favorite place in the world is Central Park at sunrise. I always run with my phone and these days spend as much time taking pictures as I do picking up the pace.
