Welcome!

Running the Tokyo Marathon will be another special chapter in my journey, but this one is about something much bigger than running 26.2 miles.

As a father, supporting the autism community is deeply personal to me. My daughter Aurora has taught me so much about love, patience, perspective, and celebrating what makes each of us unique. Through my running journey, I've made it my mission to raise awareness, support families, and help advance research that can make a meaningful difference in the lives of autistic individuals.

I'm proud to once again support the Organization for Autism Research (OAR) Your contribution, no matter the amount, will help fund research that improves the lives of autistic individuals and their families.

If you're able, please consider making a donation and sharing this page with your family and friends. Every dollar brings us one step closer to a world with greater understanding, acceptance, and opportunity.

Thank you for being part of this journey and helping me turn every mile into something meaningful.

26.2 miles for a cause close to my heart.
