I’m a Florida Native with Honduran roots. My running journey started as a walk-on cross-country runner at the University of South Florida. What began with no running experience quickly became a lifelong passion. Since then, I’ve run the Chicago and New York City Marathons, completed Yoga Leadership Teacher Training in 2019, and became a certified Run Coach in 2023. My next goal is to return to the in 2027 and chase a Boston Marathon qualifying time.
