I've worked at Children's Hospital Colorado in the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders for 15 years. The kids I've taken care of over the years have impacted me far more than I could ever hope to impact them. This year, I am riding in the Courage Classic to give hope to Children’s Hospital Colorado patients like Piper.

Piper was diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma – a form of cancer that was growing as a soft tumor in her spine. Today, after many rounds of chemotherapy and radiation at Children’s Hospital Colorado, the creative, big-hearted elementary schooler is cancer free. Piper's family says they made it through a lot of tough days with help and support from every area of the hospital.

The Courage Classic is an opportunity to support positive outcomes and healthier futures for kids like Piper.
