About Me
I am a 2019 graduate of Davidson College, where I majored in psychology and played Division I field hockey. In the summer of 2019, I will be traveling with a group of college-aged students on a 49-day, 4000+ mile run from San Francisco to Boston, raising money and awareness for the Ulman Foundation.
​
My dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma this past summer and received a stem cell transplant in November. I have always wanted to do something meaningful to raise awareness for different types of cancer and to gain support and resources for cancer research; now that my dad is a member of the community of people living with cancer, my drive to raise awareness and support for those affected by cancer has exponentially increased. Multiple members of my extended family and school community have also gone through cancer diagnoses and treatments, and I feel as though every day I am learning about another person's diagnosis. I aspire to be an integral part of the movement to support cancer research and to be a cohesive part of the community that serves and supports those affected by cancer.
​
I aim to provide meaningful support for anyone affected by cancer, along with my passion for running and my mentality of doing whatever it takes to make an impact in another person's life, even if it is just one person. I played Division I field hockey at Davidson College, so I have experience pushing through physical challenges. In being a part of a team, I have also had the incredible experience of representing something that is much bigger than myself, which I have an even greater opportunity to do with the 4K for Cancer. I am running to support my dad, my family members, and anyone around the country we can touch on our way across the country. One of my greatest aspirations in life is to be a servant to others; by traveling 4,000 miles this summer with the Ulman Foundation, I have the opportunity to put this goal into practice through supporting those affected by cancer, showing support for my own family, and hopefully improving myself and learning from others along the way.
