I am a native Texan, born to run, enjoy and live life outdoors. My medical career has allowed me to live in Philadelphia, Boston, San Antonio, Minneapolis, and now Columbus Ohio. I am trained as a general surgeon, have practiced acute care, trauma, burn, and general surgery. I've traveled and found running groups throughout Europe and Singapore. My favorite sports are whatever my kids are playing. I run to feel great! Favorite running companion is CrossFit, favorite hobbies are cooking and travel! Goal: Can't wait to run my first International Marathon!
