My Story

15 Aug 2025

I ride for two friends—one who we lost to cancer at just 8 years old, and one who fought hard and won. Their stories are why this cause matters so much to me.

The truth is, cancer is the #1 killer of children by disease in the U.S. Every year 15,700 kids are diagnosed, and 38 children die every week. That’s 38 families forever changed—and it’s 38 too many.

I’m riding in the Great Cycle Challenge to raise funds for the Children’s Cancer Research Fund—fueling research, better treatments, and hope for a cure.

💛 Please donate if you can. Every dollar helps give kids the future they deserve.
