As an Assistant Athletic Director at Bard College, I see every single day how sports can transform a life. Athletics taught me discipline, teamwork, and resilience, it is the reason I am where I am today. I believe that the power of sport should be accessible to everyone, regardless of ability or financial circumstance.

That’s why I am taking the Polar Plunge for Special Olympics New York. I am jumping into freezing water so that others don't have to sit on the sidelines.

Your donation ensures that Special Olympics NY athletes can experience that same joy and growth. Your support funds critical training, life-changing competitions, and inclusive activities, all provided completely free of charge to the athletes and their families. In times like these, your support means more than ever to ensure these programs continue.

Please help me give others the same opportunities that shaped my life. Donate today and support a community of athletes who deserve their moment in the sun!
