Running for Alzheimer's!

Hello family and friends! I will be running my first marathon (Marine Corps Marathon) in Washington, D.C. at the end of October. It is impactful to run for a cause, and for my first marathon, I've chosen to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association. This disorder and other dementia-related disorders have always been very near to my heart as someone who has seen family members and close friends affected. I've become even more passionate about this disorder through work as we are currently taking on one of our first clinical trials dealing with neurodegenerative diseases. I know how big the necessity is for continued research, care, and support for Alzheimer's, and I am over the moon to help this community in this special way. :)

Thank you in advance for contributing to this cause and helping me reach my goal - it is greatly appreciated!
