Hi, I’m Madison, and I currently serve as President of the Board of Directors for The Brady Effect. I oversee our Board to ensure we are working towards our mission, and you may often see me at many of our future events. In addition to this role, I work as a technical manager, where I oversee the routine analysis group for a life science CDMO.

I grew up in Hartland, Michigan, where I was actively involved in sports and dance, spending my time playing soccer and competitively dancing at my family’s studio. My passion for soccer led me to Youngstown State University (YSU), where I played soccer while earning my degree in Forensic Science. YSU will always hold a special place in my heart as it’s where I met Brady, and when his impact in my life began.

After graduating, I moved back to Michigan and started my career in the life sciences industry in Ann Arbor. During Brady’s last semester at YSU in 2021, we began our long-distance relationship, which eventually led him to join me in Michigan. Soon after, we decided to settle down and buy a home in Petersburg. Brady showed me the immense value of the work he was doing with children on the spectrum. I had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the positive impact he made and how much he truly enjoyed his work.

The greatest thing Brady taught me was how important we are, not only to others but also to ourselves. I still enjoy playing soccer with friends, I love traveling, and I prefer to spend my free time with friends and family making as many memories as possible.

Continuing Brady’s legacy through The Brady Effect is a true honor, and I am excited about the difference we are working to make.
