I’m excited (and a little nervous!) to be running the 2026 NYC Marathon, my first ever marathon, in support of Partners for Hope / Partnership to End Addiction.
 

This campaign is deeply meaningful to me. Addiction has impacted my life both personally and professionally. I’ve lost loved ones far too soon to substance use disorders, and in the ER, I’ve cared for and lost many patients to overdose and addiction. Every one of them deserved more resources, better care, and far less stigma.
 

I’m also especially grateful that this race will mark the start of a new chapter for me, as I move to NYC this summer for my medical education fellowship. Running this marathon feels like a meaningful way to mark my entrance into the city and become a part of the community.
 

If you’re able, I would truly appreciate your support - whether through a donation, sharing this page, or cheering me on.

Thank you for being part of this with me.
