life through my lens

Set a new standard for ringing in a new year | #HudsonBroHoes
I am grateful every year to be able to experience Marathon Weekend in Memphis, and even more so to once again walk the 5k with Mama Swami and Chrystal. I love this new tradition we have created for ourselves and hope it continues for many years to come.
We were the only two from Class 7 at alumni weekend, but I think we represented beautifully 💙
So grateful to get back to my annual birthday run this year 🎈 | #ThisIs39
There are so many different ways to “Do Good”, and for me today that meant taking to the streets to march for reproductive rights. I’m proud to be a @ppact supporter and a #CotopaxiAdvocate and to use whatever platform I have to encourage others to also #DoGood. @cotopaxi
Had the best time frolicking around the city with these best friends, and the icing on the cake was getting to see this show last night | #BudaBesties
Loved running around the Land with these favorite friends this weekend | #MistakeOnTheLake2022
Treated myself to a 4-day getaway spent traipsing around Chicago with my mini-me and it was the best gift I could have given myself 💙
I am still processing a lot of feelings from this year’s Marathon Weekend, but this is a moment I want to hold on to for a long, long time — the excitement and pride my mother felt after getting her first 5k medal, at the age of 78, one year out from breaking her femur. Walking this race with her, and being able to share it with one of my best friends and one of my mother’s biggest fans was icing on the cake.
