I'm Riding For

Sophia, Payton, Katie, Thomas, Ke'yair, Katrina, Sabrina, Malcom, and so many others

Childhood cancer (all cancer for that matter) needs to end. I'm riding again this September for the 9th time to raise funds for cancer research. Riding in honor and in memory of all those who are dealing with or have been lost to cancer. Too many to mention, but never to many to remember. Love. You.

My Story

24 Jun 2025

I choose to do one fundraiser a year. 2025 will be my 9th year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge and will be riding this September to fight kids' cancer! My goal is to pedal 300 miles throughout the month.

Why am I doing this? Because I have a hate-hate relationship with cancer. Especially kid's cancer.

Cancer is the largest killer of children from disease in the United States – 38 children die of cancer every week.

My challenge will be tough, but it's nothing compared to what these brave kids and their families face every day of their lives as they battle this terrible disease.

Kids should be living life, NOT fighting for it.

And so I am taking on this challenge to end childhood cancer and save little lives.

Please support me by making a donation today.

All funds raised will support Children's Cancer Research Fund to continue their work to develop innovative treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

I appreciate your support.
