My Story…

Hi everyone,

This year, my wife Alexa Rose and I are so excited to be running the Falmouth Road Race for the first time in support of the Brain Aneurysm Foundation (BAF). This is a cause that’s deeply important to us. We are running in memory of my grandmother, Eilyana, and in support of my mother, Ann.

My grandmother Eilyana survived three brain aneurysms before later passing away from an aortic aneurysm in 2006. My mother, Ann, was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm seven years ago. I am proud to run this race in support of her on her journey. She is one of the strongest, bravest, and most loving people I know. She is a ray of light that we are so grateful to have in our lives.

After participating in the Brain Aneurysm Foundation's Annual Arterial Challenge walks in 2019 and 2021, we're excited to take our support one step further by running the Falmouth Road Race. 

The Brain Aneurysm Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness, providing education and support, advocating for patients and families, and funding research to improve outcomes for those affected by brain aneurysms. 

If you're able, please consider making a donation or sharing this page. Every contribution—no matter the size—helps fund critical research, expand education and awareness, and provide support to individuals and families affected by brain aneurysms.

Thank you so much for your generosity and encouragement. It truly means the world to us!

Description

I’m Running to Save Lives! 🏃‍♀️❤️

This year, I’m excited to be running in the Falmouth Road Race to support the Brain Aneurysm Foundation (BAF)! This cause is deeply important to me, and I’m dedicated to raising awareness, funding critical research, and helping those affected by brain aneurysms.

💙 Why This Matters:
🔹 1 in 50 people have an unruptured brain aneurysm
🔹 Every 18 minutes, an aneurysm ruptures—often with devastating effects
🔹 Awareness, research, and early detection can save lives

This year’s theme is “Be the Key to Saving Lives”, because together, we can unlock hope and change outcomes for survivors and families.

💙 How You Can Help:
🔑 Donate to my fundraiser—every dollar makes a difference
🔑 Share my page to spread awareness
🔑 Cheer me on as I run for this life-saving cause

I’m grateful for your support—thank you for being part of this journey!
