This will be my second time running for Team FACES (Finding a Cure for Epilepsy and Seizures) and I am excited to be joining them again this year!

I first ran with the team in 2022 after my cousin Jaime reached out and introduced me to the awesome work FACES does. Her son Matthew was diagnosed with Epilepsy at age 5, and is now seizure-free thanks to the incredible team of doctors and staff at the NYU Langone Epilepsy Center.

I hadn't planned on running the race again so soon, but the loss of someone close to me this past year - who was himself interested in running the marathon in 2024 in support of a charity - inspired me to take the leap (or run) again.

I'm hoping this is a small step in honoring his desire to be a net positive on the world.

Thank you for your support.
