practitioner with 13 years of experience caring for transplant patients, I have had the privilege of walking alongside individuals whose lives have been transformed through organ donation. Each day, I care for kidney and pancreas transplant recipients, witnessing their resilience, gratitude, and renewed hope.

Having completed four marathons, I understand the physical and mental commitment it takes to reach the finish line. This race, however, represents far more than a personal goal?it is an opportunity to honor my patients, celebrate the gift of life, and raise awareness for the critical importance of organ donation.

I run for those who are waiting, for those who have received a second chance, for those who have made a wonderful gift of living donation, and for the families who make selfless decisions in moments of profound loss. Through this journey, I hope to amplify the mission of Donate Life and inspire others to consider the lifesaving impact of organ donation.

Help me raise money in support of Donate Life NYS to help spread awareness, education and outreach!
