My Story

5 Aug 2026

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

In 2001 my family lost our dear Caroline to a very aggressive form of bone cancer, she was seven. At the time I was still on active duty with the USAF. Thankfully most of the medical bills were covered. Many people reading this are thinking, "they've already raised over 5 million". This fundraiser is for research to hopefully end childhood cancer and 5 million is a drop in the bucket compared to what's needed. I know times are tough, but even a donation of five dollars will help.

My Legacy

Here's my personal impact over 7 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.
