The next 10 years will be an era of less chemo and more cures, and I’m proud to be helping to bring the latest advancements in care to Maine by participating in Champion the Cure Challenge. The Challenge is northern and eastern Maine’s largest fundraising event, and all the money raised stays in our communities to support patient care and research at the Lafayette Family Cancer Institute and Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center.

Cancer touches virtually every individual and family in Maine, but there’s a brighter future ahead for those affected by cancer. By participating in The Challenge, I’m helping to make this future a reality, and I invite others to join me in working to defeat cancer.

My fiance' is a cancer survivor (9 years strong) and he is my WHY that helps push me to be better everyday. He has been my biggest supporter and number one fan. While I am so thankful cancer didn't take him from me - others aren't so lucky. As the years go on, it is vital that we help propel cancer research to hopefully make lives a little longer and cancer a little less of a concern. Help me raise money in support of him and all survivors, battlers, and lost loved ones.
