In the News

First, thanks to the wonderful DC sports bloggers Dan Steinberg and Steven Goff. Both featured the campaign in their daily blogs. In case you haven't read it you can read Dan's piece here and Steven's here.

We'll see YOU at the DC United viewing parties at 18th and Red or Molly Malone's this Saturday. I plan on being at both! GO DC UNITED!

Mission Moment



I wanted to share another video with you telling Alessandro and Megan's heroic story. This really puts into perspective what this campaign is all about. It's about finding a cure so children like Alessandro and Megan don't have to go through such a thing. My heart goes out to the families who have been through this. Yes, we will one day find a cure.

Great Fans...Great Game


What a busy weekend!  Saturday brought a victorious DC United game against the Houston Dynamo where the one and only Bryan Namoff had a beautiful assist. Maybe it has something to do with my infamous pre-game meals!  Before the game my mom, my aunt, my cousin, and I went around the Screaming Eagles and Barra Brava tailgates to promote the DC United Viewing Party this weekend at Eighteenth and Red. You guys are all so wonderful and welcoming.  United truly has the best fans.


Sunday was the Cherry Blossom Ten Miler and I FINISHED in 1:36! Bryan and my mom were there to greet me at the finish line.  It really was an emotional experience having everyone cheering you on at the last stretch screaming "KEEP GOING! YOU CAN DO IT!"  Thank goodness for Britney Spears.  Her tunes definitely helped me out.  Next is the half marathon.  Any volunteers to train with me???
