Hello and thank you for visiting my Pelotonia site!

I am an Assistant Professor at The Ohio State University within the College of Veterinary Medicine. My entire research career has been focused on human viruses which cause cancer. Did you know that 20% of human cancers are caused by viruses?!? My research has helped make tremendous progress over the years, but there is still much more to be accomplished to ultimately reach the cure. I have been fortunate to have a large portion of my research at OSU funded from Pelotonia. Our continued progress on the fight against cancer results from cancer researchers making discoveries in the laboratory and bringing them to the clinic.

This is my 7th year riding for Pelotonia to honor families and friends who have been impacted by cancer. Please join me and support Pelotonia by making a donation. 100% of your donation goes directly to cancer research at the OSU Comprehensive Cancer Center and James Cancer Hospital! No gift is too small and all donations are tax deductible.
