Pedal the Cause

As a Siteman researcher, my research aims to increase people's access to cancer screening, early detection, and quality of life after cancer.  Pedal has supported research to drive innovations in understanding and preventing cancer, improving early detection, and improving treatments.  I have a passion for bringing research opportunities and reducing the burden of cancer across communities. 

I have watched the impact of cancer on people in my life.  Each had a unique journey and faced numerous challenges.  Continued cancer research can not only help with prevention and early detection, it can improve treatments and outcomes. Those in my life who have walked this path are my inspiration to keep going. 

Pedal the Cause is hope, community and the region’s most impactful movement to end cancer. I am proud to participate and to play a part in funding groundbreaking research at our local, top-ranked institutions that is changing the way we treat and cure cancers. Pedal has funded my own research to improve cancer screening rates in rural communities, giving people the chance for earlier detection and better outcomes. 

Every penny of every dollar donated funds innovative cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center and Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children's Hospital, driving new treatments, clinical trials and discoveries that are improving patient outcomes.
