Where are you from?
Toronto(ish), Canada
What is your role on the World Trade Center project?
I'm a Project Engineer for the Port Authority on the September 11 Memorial & Museum project. I mostly deal with the project's budget and procurement of trade contracts.
Why did you become/ why are you now part of the Memorial Miles program?
To raise money for the Memorial, and to challenge myself to run on a regular basis.
Where were you on 9/11/01?
I was in high school, but I had the morning off so I was at home watching live as the second plane hit the towers.
What was your initial reaction to the attacks?
My immediate reaction was pure shock, followed quickly by sadness and fear. Since I was living in Canada, I didn't know anyone directly affected by the attacks, so it wasn't until I moved to New York in 2005 that I really felt how deeply the city and country were affected.
What are your hopes for the Memorial Miles program?
That the program will continue through the 10th anniversary of 9/11, so that we can contribute to that important milestone.
