ABOUT MA HOBY

-MA HOBY is a global nonprofit organization that hosts leadership seminars for young individuals. These individuals have opportunities to meet distinguished leaders, develop leadership skills and participate in community service. MA HOBY hopes to make these individuals become positive catalysts in their homes, schools, and communities.

-Exposure to leadership development at a young age creates a life-lasting impact & creates a spiral effect for our communities & the upcoming generations.

STORY

-When I was given the opportunity to raise money to benefit MA HOBY I was ecstatic. I was fortunate enough to have mentors at an early age who instilled confidence in me & I know the lasting impact those individuals had to get me on the path I'm on today.

-I hope all young adults have the same opportunity to develop leadership and confidence, & MA HOBY assists with such.

-I picked up running after my collegiate athletic career ended in late November 2021. I was immediately attracted to the mental and physical challenges running provides. Running one of the biggest races in the world will be a life long memory of mine and I can not wait to do so while representing a charity that holds values I root for.
