Hello,

If you're reading this, it's because you know that I'm a cancer survivor and that cancer changed my life. As part of that journey, I’ve had the incredible honor of serving as a board member—and now Board Chair—of this wonderful organization called Stupid Cancer.

Stupid Cancer is the leading organization supporting the adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer community. Their mission is to help 15- to 39-year-olds get busy living.

I had a 15% chance of survival, but after being diagnosed in October 2007 and finishing treatment in September 2009, here I am living out Stupid Cancer's mission to “get busy living” as I take on my 7th full distance triathlon, Ironman Florida 2026.

I am dedicating my fundraiser to Stupid Cancer and hope you will “cheer me on” by making a donation. Every dollar raised directly advances Stupid Cancer's vital mission, ensuring that no young adult has to face cancer alone. Please also help me spread the word by sharing this page with your family and friends, and feel free to reach out to ask me how you can get involved too!

Together, we can make a difference!

Un Abrazo,
