Hi everyone! I’m so excited to be running the 2026 NYC Marathon with the American Heart Association—an incredible organization and the largest private funder of cardiovascular research, working to help people live longer, healthier lives. And what makes this even more special, I’ll be running it alongside my MOM!!!!

I am running in honor of my Uncle Paulie (5 heart attacks, quintuple bypass), Uncle Jeff (sextuple bypass), and in memory of my grandfathers Poppy and Pappou (bypasses), my cousin's husband Jay Seslak (passed age 49) and my moms best friends husband Micheal Alnwick (passed age 57).

Growing up, being active was always a huge part of my life through soccer and lacrosse—sports shaped so much of who I am. The same thing goes for my mom, this will be her 5th NYC Marathon! I love that I can now use running to support this amazing cause and celebrate the ability we have to live active, healthy lives.

All donations support lifesaving work like pediatric research, CPR training, and improving cardiovascular care for patients.

Thank you for your support and for helping me make a difference!
