My Story

3 Aug 2025

9 years ago I survived twice against Stage 4 Classic Hodgkin's Lymphoma. With all the hurdles and obstacles my diagnosis had brought I cannot begin to imagine what some children and their families go through to survive. I will continue to use my time and abilities to help those less fortunate. I know that with your help WE CAN BEAT CANCER! Please help me complete my pledge is to cycle 200 miles and fundraise $7500! Please share my story and pledge with your family, friends, coworkers, and businesses to Donate!

What a week what a week

23 Sep 2025

I don't know where the time went out the energy flowed but I definitely have some miles to make up today and this week overall. It's going to look like another push for a strong finish this year and clean up miles in the month ahead. I'm grateful for everyone donating and sharing my pledge it means a lot more than I can express.
