My Story

2 Sep 2026

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! I am cycling in memory of my cousin, Ali, who is lost her battle to a rare childhood cancer (Osteosarcoma) during this fundraising last year.

Right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

Here's my personal impact over 2 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

  • 4.2 mi ride - Dedicated to Tori 😍 - Monday, October 12, 2026

    5 Oct 2026

    I had several donations come in for the Great Cycle Challenge right at the end of September! Guess that means I have to keep riding 😂

    On October 1, I rode 3.8 miles in honor of my adopted second parents, Manuel Cueto and Dianne Cueto 💛🎗️

    These are my best friends’ parents that I’ve known practically my entire life. They tolerated me when I was young and annoying—albeit still less annoying than their youngest daughter 😉—and I loved spending time in their loud, crazy house growing up!

    As an adult, they continue to include me in family activities and love on me and Tyler whenever they get the chance. I love them dearly, and I’m so thankful to be considered part of their family. God has been so good to me through them. 🥰

    Thank you, Manuel & Dianne, for contributing to this special cause and for loving on my family through some really difficult times. 💛

    Donation links will remain open through October, so feel free to support Children’s Cancer Research Fund and make me keep biking. 😂 Every dollar matters for kids like Aliyah! I wish she were here to laugh at me biking. 💛🎗️

    Today’s 3.2 miles dedicated to Jess Krezmien 💛🎗️

    Jess is such a strong, bold woman who uses her voice and platform to advocate for others and she pours so much heart into what she believes in! She has a very special way of blessing the people around her. She loves big, educates herself deeply, gives freely, laughs fully, and makes an impact in everything she does. I’m grateful I get to know her!

    I’m especially grateful that she chose to support my ride and the fight against childhood cancer in memory of my cousin, Aliyah. You can just tell from this picture she brought joy everywhere she went! Every donation helps push research forward, and having people like Jess come alongside me makes these miles mean even more.

    Thank you, Jess, for your generosity, your strength, and for continuing to use your voice and your heart to make a difference in this world. 💛🎗️

    4.8 miles dedicated to Jessenia Davis 💛🎗️

    I rode these miles several days ago, but life has been very heavy for our family this week, so I’m just now getting around to posting.

    Jess brings such a beautiful spirit of kindness to everyone around her. She is generous, thoughtful, considerate, and has one of the most beautiful smiles you’ll ever see! She always seems to carry so much joy with her. She’s truly one of the bright spots at my gym - working hard and supporting everyone around her! I hate that I don’t get to see her more often. I want to be like Jess when I grow up. 😊

    I’m grateful to dedicate this ride to someone who brings so much positivity and light to the people around her. And every mile I ride is also helping raise money for childhood cancer research through Great Cycle Challenge. I’m riding in memory of Aliyah and in hopes of supporting kids and families who are facing childhood cancer today, so they can have a brighter future with better research, better treatments, and more hope.

    Thank you, Jess, for being one of those people who makes the world around you a little brighter. 💛 I’m so thankful to know you!

    Today is the last day of my fundraising. I have a few more miles to get in! Wish me luck as biking is not my friend 😂

    5.7 miles for Aliyah 💛🎗️

    Yesterday marked one year since we lost Aliyah to osteosarcoma, a devastating childhood cancer. It’s hard to believe a whole year has passed without her here.

    Yesterday’s ride was dedicated to her — and to all the kids and families still fighting this awful disease. I’m continuing to ride and raise money for childhood cancer research because Aliyah’s story shouldn’t end with her. I want her life, her fight, and her memory to continue making a difference.

    One year later, she is still loved, still remembered, and still giving us a reason to keep riding 💛
