My Story

My life was forever changed on February 9, 2019 when I was diagnosed with Burkitt's Lymphoma.  It was the worst experience of my life.  I spent 4 months in and out of the hospital being poked and prodded and woken up every few hours at night by nurses.  Most of the time I felt awful and stayed in bed.  I am fortunate that my treatment period is over and my scans have all been cancer free!


I want to raise money to help find cures, so that other kids don't have to go through that awful experience.  Thank you for supporting me and the more than 300,000 kids worldwide who will be diagnosed with cancer this year. Your donation does make a difference.


By sharing the gifts of your time, talent and money with the St. Baldrick's Foundation, you're supporting research to give all kids with cancer a better chance for a cure!
