I am an ultra-runner, world traveler, and master’s student at Gonzaga University. For over 20 years, I’ve been exploring the world as passionately as I’ve embraced running, driven by a desire to test my physical limits. After completing numerous half-marathons and full marathons, I ventured into the 50k and 50-mile distances. As a mid-pack runner, I now focus on enjoying the views and cherishing the journey during each race.

After a robust ten-plus year career across multiple sectors, my mission is to create meaningful, lasting impact and connection through community service initiatives. Driven by a vision to inspire change and push boundaries, I deliver work that truly makes a difference.

After being awarded the Erasmus+ scholarship for spring 2025, I will be based in Timisoara, Romania studying diplomacy, migration, and human rights at the West University of Timisoara. Please follow along with my adventures!
