My Story

Running for Sea-Changers

I’m excited to fundraise for Sea Changers UK through the London Marathon because of my deep, personal connection to the ocean and my desire to make a meaningful impact on its preservation. I grew up in Florida, surrounded by beautiful beaches, and my love for the ocean was nurtured in a beach town where the sea was always just a few steps away. Unfortunately, I also witnessed firsthand the destructive effects humans have on the ocean, from plastic pollution to the loss of marine habitats. These experiences have shaped my life and fueled my commitment to protecting the marine environment.

My love for the ocean didn't just inspire me to enjoy its beauty – it also drove me to pursue a career in science and ultimately veterinary medicine. I believe that understanding and preserving our natural world is crucial, and I want to play a role in safeguarding the creatures that depend on the ocean’s health. Sea Changers UK’s mission to fund marine conservation projects is something I strongly believe in, and I want to do my part to support their vital work.

Sea-Changers is a UK marine conservation charity, managed by a small team of volunteers who love the UK's seas, shores and wildlife. They give grants to UK marine charities and non-profits for conservation and research projects.
