Bio:

I currently live in Eugene, Oregon (Tracktown USA!) where I get to train with many people in the local running community. I am originally from New Jersey but found myself living in Oregon because of all the outdoor activities that are available here, specifically the thousands of miles of beautiful trails. I often run with my crazy dog Kenobi, who is also a big fan of the trails! I also work at a biotech start-up where we focus on research for rare human genetic diseases.

In the past few years, I have raced a few half marathons, but I am hoping to complete my first full marathon soon and continue training for marathon races.
