I will be running on Thursday May 16th 2024 because I know that with every step, I am saving lives.

Early in my medical career my grandfather Carl Moskowitz suffered a sudden cardiac death after returning home from his routine visit with his cardiologist. This has lead to my focus on heart disease prevention and the field of clinical lipidology. The ability to intervene along the course of this disease process , early or late in life, in primary or secondary prevention, and inherited or acquired risk causality is so impactful.

We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way. We have to change that. Will you help me?

Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.

Have a heart and help me reach my goal today

The Heart Walk is the American Heart Association's premiere event for raising funds to save lives from USA's #1 and #5 killers - heart disease and stroke.

Happy anniversary 🎉🍾to my one and my only  you make all of us better every day - I love you now and forever !!
