Welcome to my fundraising page! I’m taking on the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon with Fred’s Team, the official running program of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). 

At almost 65 years old, I never imagined I would be training for my first marathon.

But cancer has a way of changing your perspective.

As many of you know, 10 years ago, my daughter Casey was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at just 18 years old. Like so many families facing cancer, we entered a world of treatments, scans, uncertainty, and fear. Thankfully, because of advances in research and the dedication of countless healthcare professionals, this year, Casey will be celebrating 10 years cancer free!

So why am I running?

I’m running in honor of Casey.

I’m running in memory of my father.

I’m running for every patient, every survivor, every caregiver, and every family whose life has been touched by cancer.

Every mile I train and every dollar raised helps move us one step closer to better treatments, more survivors, and ultimately a world without cancer.
