I am again riding the Pan-Mass Challenge this August 2nd and 3rd to raise money for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. In September 2023, I was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and I am a patient at Dana Farber's Center for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Last year I rode from Bourne to Provincetown, and this year I am riding both days, Sturbridge to Bourne to Provicetown (172 miles- yikes!). PMC Team BBS (Brown Boy Strong) was established in 2017 in honor of my friend, Kayur Shah, who passed away in 2019. This will be my second year riding with Team BBS. In addition to riding for Kayur, I am riding in memory of my brother-in-law, Eddie White, who passed away in 2024. I am also riding in memory of my mother-in-law, Kathy Fewer, and my aunt, Mary Caloia.

I hope to raise money to fund research to support the treatment and cure for cancer. Dana Farber is an international leader in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia research and treatment. I'm a proud supporter of the PMC because it is leading a charge to beat cancer. In fact, last year 100% of rider-raised revenue went directly to support the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's tireless commitment to finding a cure.
