Journey of Hope 2026

My Journey of Hope!

This summer, I’m taking on Journey of Hope to grow as a leader, challenge myself physically, and prove that I can step up to fundraise for a cause I care about. Cycling ~8000 miles over two months is a big commitment, but it’s exactly the kind of challenge I want to pursue to push myself and serve others.


I also have a personal connection to this mission because I grew up around family and friends with autism and Down syndrome, and seeing their joy despite the adversity they face inspires me. On the road, I want to help more people understand inclusion, accessibility, and the idea that disability does not mean inability. Every conversation and donation helps move that message forward.

If you’re able, I would be grateful for any level of support, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this page with others who might be interested. Thank you for helping me take on this journey and stand alongside people with disabilities across the country.
