Every day, I have the privilege of working with incredible children with autism. Through my work, I’ve seen how powerful movement can be. Whether it’s building confidence, improving emotional regulation, creating opportunities for connection, or simply seeing the joy on a child’s face after accomplishing something they didn’t think they could do, physical activity truly changes lives.
That’s one of the many reasons I’m honored to run the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon with Team for Kids.
Team for Kids believes that every child deserves the opportunity to discover the lifelong benefits of movement. Their programs have reached 2.5 million students throughout New York City’s five boroughs and across the nation, helping children build healthy habits, confidence, and stronger communities through running.
As someone who witnesses the impact of movement every day, this mission is deeply personal to me. Every mile we complete together is a step toward a healthier future for kids.
