I'm stepping up against cancer!

This year, I’m taking on Relay For Life to raise funds for every person who’s ever heard the words: “you have cancer”. In 2024, more than 150, 000 Australians will receive the news. Among them are our friends, families and colleagues.

Cancer is a devastating disease for so many. For people living with cancer, their treatments can be long and stressful. For those without solutions, the future can be uncertain. It’s a concern shared by their loved ones.

But with your support, I hope to help as many people impacted by cancer as possible. Together, we can support families when they need it most, empower people to reduce their risk, speak up for communities, and find new ways to better detect and treat cancer.

Every step I take is one closer to a cancer free future. But I can’t do it alone! Please donate to my Relay today and together, we can help Cancer Council provide life-changing support services, advocacy, prevention and research across Australia.

Thank you for stepping up. Together we’ll make powerful strides against cancer!

So far this year I've helped provide:

Kids with a SunSmart education

Calls to trained cancer professionals on 13 11 20

Days of a PhD student's world-class research

I relay for my Dad!

I’m taking part in Relay For Life because cancer became personal for our family in 2016, when my dad was diagnosed with kidney cancer. It was a confronting experience after decades without such a close encounter. Thankfully, after surgery, he made a full recovery and is now cancer-free. We know how lucky we are—and that many others aren’t as fortunate. That’s why I Relay.

Thank you to my Sponsors
