My Story…
Hi friends – I am thrilled to be running my 3rd Falmouth Road Race as the team captain for empowerHER®, an organization that serves girls + young women who experience mother loss, and is working to serve children of all parent loss. I learned of this organization in 2018 when my dear friend Ann Marie moved from Boston to LA on a mission to expand the organization into Southern California. Having also experienced the loss of my own mother, Mattie, I was eager to help launch the non-profit onto a national stage and see all children be served. Thank you so much for your support as I take on the race in Cape Cod, MA this August!
