Welcome to my Team In Training home page

.


On August 28, 2011 I lost my mother, best friend and role-model to Leukemia. Today, I have a mission-to help find cures and more effective treatments for blood cancers.I dream of a day when no family will have to through the pain we went through.


To accomplish that mission, I’m participating in the Philadelphia Triathlon as a member of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Team In Training. I can barely swim or ride a bike but I am determined to tackle this challenge with the same strength and determination that my mother faced her disease with. I am racing to honor her, and to better the odds for others.


Like the other members of TNT, I will be raising funds to help find cures and better treatments for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma. With your support, I can help improve the quality of life for patients and their families as well.


You can follow my adventures in training and fundraising on my blog Just Gotta TRI. Please make a donation in support of my efforts with Team In Training and help advance the research for cures.
