TEAM BROOKLINE

Team Brookline, the Town of Brookline’s official Boston Marathon team, is a committed group of adult runners who train together for the Boston Marathon while raising funds and awareness for five partner charities that play an integral role in strengthening and enriching our community: Brookline Community Mental Health Center, Brookline Education Foundation, Brookline Library Foundation, Brookline Symphony Orchestra, and Brookline Teen Center.

I’m back for Round 2!! Beyond excited be running the 128th Boston Marathon, my 2nd one, and returning with for Team Brookline and the Brookline Symphony Orchestra. Music, as many of you know, is such an incredibly close cause to my heart and a big part of my life, as an avid music lover and musician in the Boston area with my band AP Wray. To give back to something that gives myself and many others so much happiness and fulfillment in our lives means the world to me, and to make an immediate impact in the city I’ve called home for the past 11 years makes it even better.

Join me in supporting the Brookline Symphony Orchestra! Your donation will help provide paying for rehearsal and performance space, music rental, as well as outreach concerts to retirement communities, prisons, hospitals and beyond. Every dollar counts and any amount donated is truly appreciated! It’s going to be my first time training in the winter and your support will be a big motivation through many cold morning long runs! I can’t wait to make you all proud as I cross that finish line once more on Marathon Monday!

Help me in my efforts to raise money for the Brookline Symphony Orchestra!

Growing up in Brookline, MA and singing in district, high school and collegiate choirs, I have grown to have a true love for music and the accompaniment of a beautiful orchestra.

I am running the 128th Boston Marathon with Team Brookline following my fifth season of Division 1 College Soccer where I was a goalkeeper for four seasons at The University of Michigan and my final season at Providence College, where I am currently studying to complete a certificate in Business Analytics before moving to North Carolina to start work in June.

I would appreciate any support in my fundraising efforts. Anything helps!

The Brookline Symphony Orchestra truly epitomizes a community pillar, comprising volunteer musicians who dedicate their time to perform concerts locally (right across the street from where we live). Their commitment to excellence and nurturing of young talents from prestigious institutions like Juilliard and Berklee School of Music through concerts are commendable and impressive. However, what resonates with me the most is the organizations extensive involvement in music outreach. The BrSO aims to keep the concert prices affordable and for every paid-concert they perform, they perform at least one concert for free within greater Boston for example at nursing homes, hospitals, and schools. The organization truly enriches our community.

Help me in making sure organizations like the Brookline Symphony Orchestra are able to thrive and continue to contribute to our amazing local culture!
