My Story

22 Jul 2025

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! This will be my 11th year, and I plan on reaching over 500 miles by the end of the month for this very worthy cause.

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children in the United States are diagnosed with cancer each year and, sadly, 1 of 5 of those children will not survive. Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So, I am raising funds through my challenge to give these kids the brighter future they deserve. I believe each one of us can make an impact to fight cancer and save lives. Please support me by making a donation. Together our support will help pioneer research projects and medical breakthroughs that give hope to kids with cancer.

Our support will change the life of a child with cancer!

Thank you.
