This year, I’m honored to ride in Pelotonia for the 18th time—a milestone that feels especially meaningful. As a 15-year cancer survivor, this ride is deeply personal. It’s how I celebrate survivorship, honor those we’ve lost, and help push forward the fight so more people can experience life after cancer.

When I was diagnosed in 2011, everything changed overnight. With the support of my family, friends, and an incredible care team, I made it through surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and all the challenges in between. Today, I ride with gratitude—for every mile, every day, and every person who stood beside me along the way.

I ride for the mission: to fund lifesaving cancer research and move us closer to a world without this disease. One hundred percent of every dollar raised goes directly to innovative research.

This year, I’ve set a goal to raise $5,800 in recognition of a staggering reality—an estimated 5,800 people are expected to be diagnosed with cancer every day in 2026.

This ride is personal. If you’re able, I hope you’ll consider supporting my ride. Together, we can fuel discovery, bring hope, and change lives.
