WHY I RIDE

I am a breast cancer doctor and researcher at the Siteman Cancer Center. Riders and donors to Pedal the Cause have really helped us by supporting our new research projects. I received a Pedal the Cause research grant in 2016 and we used that to launch a clinical trial for breast cancer patients. This Pedal grant helped us to bring in a $5 million federal grant 2 years later to study genes in metastatic breast cancer.

I have seen first hand the toll that breast cancer takes on families. Many of the women with breast cancer are mothers and grandmothers. Mom is the heart of the family! I am proud of the work I do to help people and their families. I have two teenage daughters and I hope they can grow up in a world without cancer. Please help us work towards that goal!

Thank you,
