About Me

I am a 20-year old mountain-ultra-trail runner for Salomon, competing in international races and based out of New England on the east coast of the United States. For the majority of my life, running has been a major focus and passion of mine. Another major and growing focus is to use running as a way to connect with a broader community, and to promote wellness and environmental conservation.

I am a founding member and current coach of the Boston Bulldogs Running Club, "A co-ed 501(c)3 non-profit running club established to provide an anonymous and safe community of support for all those adversely affected by addiction - those in recovery, their families and friends, the clinical community and the community at large." The club host group runs and workouts twice a week at the Chestnut Hill Reservoir in Brighton as well as at Nelson Memorial Park in Plymouth and the Dimock Center in South Boston. Along with being a coach for the club, I have been the Race Director of the club's annual Run for Recovery, a 5K race and remembrance held every May on the beautiful fields and trails of Franklin Park in Boston.

Besides competing at an international level in the trail and endurance world, one of my many over-arching goals is to achieve the record for having run the most consecutive days in a row. How many days will it take you might ask? Well, it makes more sense to talk in decades... seriously though. According to Streak Runners International, Inc. and the United States Running Streak Association, Inc., the official definition of a running streak is "to run at least one mile (1.61 kilometers) within each calendar day. Running may occur on either the roads, a track, over hill and dale, or on a treadmill." Since 2011, I have met and exceeded these standards, racking up my own personal running streak which has recently surpassed six years. I've been recognized by both SRl and the USRSA, and have been listed on the Official Active Running Streak List. Although I am quite far ahead of many on the list (I currently fall within the top 320 individuals), I still have a ways to go before reaching the coveted #1 spot. Thankfully, time is plentiful.

Since the spring of 2015, I have been a proud member of Janji Corps, a select group of ambitious and enthusiastic athletes who strive to "run for another," as we represent Janji around the world. Janji, which means "promise" in Malay, is a running apparel brand based out of Boston, MA. Through each purchase of Janji's distinctive running apparel, a portion of proceeds funds organizations that are alleviating global crises related to water. Janji wants to create a nation of runners that run for another and help reduce the global water crisis. Please consider checking out their website and their clothing if you want to become involved with a great cause!

I am a member of numerous running clubs and organizations, all of which you can find listed here.
