My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
10 years ago, at just 13 years old, I was diagnosed with brain cancer. Since then, I’ve been through years of treatment, including being on and off chemotherapy.
Two years ago, I faced another battle when I was diagnosed with testicular cancer.
Through all of it, I’ve learned how important it is to keep moving forward, literally and figuratively.
Cycling has become a huge passion of mine. It gives me a sense of freedom, strength, and something to work toward. Every mile I ride is a reminder that cancer doesn’t define me.
I’m riding to raise awareness for cancer, inspire others to stay active, and show that even after facing difficult challenges, you can keep pushing forward.
I ride for those fighting. I ride for those who have overcome. And I ride for those who can’t. 🚴♂️❤️
