In memory of my little brother Oscar, I am running the 2025 Chicago Marathon as a Charity Runner for the Organization for Autism Research - Run For Autism.

I am also running the following races in 2025:
• Chicago Lakefront Ultras 50K, Mar. 29th
• Sugar Badger 50 Miler Ultra, May 24th
• Chicago Lakefront Ultras 50 Miler, Nov. 1st or Tunnel Hill 50 Miler, Nov 8th
More races will be added! All my miles are dedicated to my brother Oscar.


Please help me support by making a contribution to my fundraiser and sharing this page with your family and friends. Every dollar I raise will advance Organization for Autism Research's great cause!


WHY RUN FOR AUTISM?
1 in 36 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism. By joining the RUN FOR AUTISM team, you’re supporting OAR’s mission to fund research and resources that help people with autism and their families today.


Here are some of the ways that OAR uses the funds raised by the RUN FOR AUTISM team:

$10 provides a Curriculum in a Box professional development set to general education teachers.
$25 provides 15 copies of A Guide to Safety to families and first responders.
$100 provides the Kit for Kids peer education resource to an entire elementary or middle school.
$150 provides 100 copies of a Life Journey through Autism guidebook sent to a community support group or military installation.
$1,000 provides a research grant for a graduate student studying autism.
$3,000 provides a scholarship for a student with autism to attend college.
$50,000 fully underwrites an applied research pilot study.
