2026 Chicago Marathon

Welcome to my fundraising page! I am so happy to announce that I will be running the 2026 Chicago Marathon with Live Like Roo. 

As a veterinarian, I am very passionate about making veterinary care accessible to all pet parents. A cancer diagnosis can be heartbreaking for families, especially when treatment is not financially feasible. Live Like Roo provides support and financial assistance to families whose pet faces a cancer diagnosis. I am proud to work at Live Like Roo's close partner, BLVD Veterinary, and to have witnessed firsthand how the support of this foundation can change patient outcomes and offer families a sense of hope in a very difficult time.

My cat, Ollie, is my best friend and my bond with him is one the most precious things in the world to me. Through my life with Ollie, and my career providing care for companion animals, I know how important their roles in our lives are. I feel so lucky to be a part of Team Live Like Roo and to support their mission this year. 

If you are able, please consider donating. Every donation, big or small, directly supports pets facing a cancer diagnosis and their families.
