I’ve been running since high school and competed at the Division I level at Towson University, where I ran cross country. After taking a few years away from the sport, I found my way back to what I’ve always loved. Since then I’ve shifted my focus to long-distance racing and have completed several 5Ks, 10Ks, a half marathon, and a marathon. I’m also a certified running coach through the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA).

Outside of coaching, I have a strong background in the biological sciences and currently work in cancer research. When I’m not working you’ll usually find me at one of Baltimore city’s many running clubs. The BeMore Run collective run community has become my second home. Built on shared miles, laughter, and genuine support. It’s a place where people from all walks of life come together with a common goal: to become a little better than they were yesterday.

Training allows me to combine my passion for running with the knowledge and experience I’ve gained over the years to help others be better and stronger. Running has a unique way of challenging you both mentally and physically. It teaches grit and discipline. If I can play even a small role in helping someone build confidence, find joy in it, or realize their own potential through running, then I know I’ve made a meaningful impact.
