Mary Kate Walsh

I was born and raised in Boston, MA and moved to Charlotte in 2015.  I have always been in awe of people who can dance and perform.  I was an athlete but I have never had any dance or performance experience.  I second guessed if I would have the guts to perform, but when this opportunity came up, I knew that I couldn’t pass it up.  The three causes that we are raising money for made the decision that much easier.  It’s not about me, its about what we can all do collectively to help others. 

I have been a nurse in the medical field for 22 years.  I most recently opened up my own med spa in Ballantyne.  I have participated in 7 marathons and love to be a part of the charlotte running community.  My husband Jim and I have a 12 year old Charlie, we spend most weekends watching him play baseball.  My daughter Anna is 14 and runs track and I have 2 step kids, Cailin and Conor, 22 who are in college.
