8 and a half years ago, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and underwent six grueling months of chemotherapy, only to find out 18 months later that my cancer was back again. In 2019 when my cancer returned, I underwent more chemotherapy, radiation, multiple surgeries, nearly a month in the hospital, and a life-saving stem cell transplant. Thanks to the incredible care I received from my nurses and doctors at Dana Farber and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, along with the support of my family and friends, I can proudly call myself a two-time cancer survivor.

This year, I am riding in my 2nd Pan-Mass Challenge with the goal of raising money for cancer research and treatment. Every mile I ride on this 186 mile journey will be honoring the memory of my grandfather (Bubba), my Grandma, my Uncle Bob, my Uncle Mike, and my Uncle Walter, who all valiantly fought cancer but passed from this terrible disease.

100% of your generous donation will directly support Dana-Farber in their mission to provide world-class cancer care, advance groundbreaking research, and offer hope to countless individuals and families facing this relentless disease. Together, we can make a difference and give hope to those who need it most.

Thank you for being a part of my journey and for standing with me in the fight against cancer.
